It was in the backpackers room. A simple room bed a small desk and a bathroom. No hot water the window was by the entrance to another property so ppl can be seen walking back and forth the shower leaked so the water came on the ground into the room. Nobody was at the property when I got there around 11am

1. Was greeted by the property owner with a complete disregard for customer service. 2. rude and unpleasant. through my partner's native id card across the table stating that they "look too young in the photo" 3. not only was it disgusting and all corners of pure nastiness, there was some major safety concerns in part structural and sanitation 4. when we decided to go for a walk to get away from the mess of a room we were placed in. Upon exiting he screamed from the balcony on how he'd like for my to enter the code and unlock the gate. That i was in fact familiar with and not complicated at all. When all he had to do was provide the gate access code.

Great affordable place to stay very close to downtown Georgetown. Room was comfortable and clean and Julian and his staff stayed up to meet our late arrival (11:30 pm). Favorite amenity was 3rd floor shaded balcony for morning coffee - fun watching street activity as locals get started on their day.

Just what I needed

Julian was most helpful - giving me tips on safety, changing some U.S. dollars in a pinch, helping me procure a flight to Kaieteur, arranging taxis as needed, inviting me to a party thrown for friends on the veranda. The accommodations are modest, but the staff's personalized willingness to make the stay a good one and the affordable cost made this a place I would return to (I note I was traveling light and solo - and looking to experience the real Georgetown rather than being sequestered away in a plush hotel). The balconies/verandas are nice, the proximity to Roti Hut (a favorite) was good, and the relative closeness to downtown Georgetown was key. The area is a bit iffy after dark, but I found that keeping one's wits about and being observant can get one through. Overall, this is a very good spot from which to operate if you are looking to get a real feel for Georgetown, as I was across the span of six nights, or needing a quick crash pad if landing in Georgetown and heading on to Suriname or the interior of Guyana.

Julian offers help, but not with hot water

Other reviews talk only of Julian and how helpful he is to which I agree. However, nowhere in the listing does it mention there is no hot water! The restaurant area is kept tidy and nice area to hang out. The rooms are small and old, but come with a microwave and refrigerator. My first night I was the only guest so place was quiet.

Excellent and friendly hotel

Excellent hotel, very friendly staff, beers are $1.50 US, rooms are very clean, AC works, television works, very relaxing and safe atmosphere. Julian the owner provides as close to private personal service as you can get, from organize taxi service, to outside city and country tours, to providing insights on the nightlife and best places to visit. You almost don't feel like you are in a different country...

Best budget hotel with friendly and helpful staff.

The room is clean and comfortable, and well maintained. Definitely a 5 star rating for the price I paid. Julian, the hotel owner, is always so helpful and always happy to assist with my needs. You can rely on his information on local tourism. The hotel has also a well stocked bar, where you can hang around and always find some friendly people to chat with. I have everything I need from this place, and I will make this my accommodation whenever I come over to Guyana. Thank you Julian for the wonderful stay.

Great deal!

Small but comfortable room. Having a fridge and microwave made meals workable. I loved the chest of drawers for storing personal items. The T.V worked great but local channels operator changed the program just when the vice presidential debate started. Was not happy about that. That had nothing to do with the guest house. Fan and A/C worked great. Great lighting as well with reliable wifi service Julian was very helpful in providing assistance with what ever I asked. The cleaners do not come into your room unless you asked them to clean when you are ready. No hot water but the tap water is warm due to the sunshine. Tea and coffee is free daily. The restaurant cooks dinner when many guests are in house.

good evening, I can inform you that this hotel Julian Guest House, does not have a good manager, on the contrary, the person who is there is an ungentlemanly man, rude, poorly educated, and he addresses the guest with little education. I arrived there at 4am and due to an altercation at the payment, he intended that I paid for 22 days that same day when I explained to him that I had booked for 22 but I was only going to pay 2 because I wasn't sure if I would stay for that long, and that man who didn't even know his name yelled at me that I had to pay the That early morning and I didn't accept it and I was able to call the man from the taxi to come back for me and take me out of that horrible place. Thank God I was able to get out of there and I will never return. The moment that happened was very bad.

Service was good as Julian was very helpful. The area around the room did have a unpleasant smell at some times. But the quality was acceptable for the price but could be improved. The room we rented did not have AC, but it did have 2 fans. These did not really make the room cooler. The rooms also did not have windows so there was no ventilation.

Logement abordable au coeur de Georgetown

Julian s'est montré très serviable (appel de taxis) et disponible pour des conseils et la guesthouse est idéalement placée, à 15mn à pied du coeur historique de Georgetown dans un quartier calme. Les matelas sont confortables et les chambres ventilées mais la salle de bain est en deça des attentes pour 45€ la nuit (pas d'eau chaude, pression trop faible au lavabo, robinets de douche bricolés, protection de cuvette WC mal fixée...). Une souris m'a aussi rendu visite une nuit, mais cela m'est arrivé dans ma chambre d'enfants dans le sud-ouest de la France. J'ai trouvé le prix légèrement surévalué pour ce type de chambre mais il est vrai que les hébergements semblent chers de manière générale à Georgetown. Les chambres à 35€ (sans AC) me paraissaient d'un meilleur rapport qualité/prix.
