"Sunny’s home stay is a perfect getaway. Easy to walk to Geyzing downhill, and if you need a taxi for the short walk uphill, there’s a taxi station right in the middle of town. Beautiful setting. Sunny will take care of all your needs! "

"The staff here were incredibly friendly and helpful. They helped organise a fantastic driver Sajan to help with navigating the sights . Cooking in house great too. Having ladies to talk to helped me as a single female traveller. Thanks for all."
