    Think decor, tiles in bathroom need some attention. Some hooks or a rail for clothes would help

    Julian a great host. Very good location, walking distance to Manatees.

    The room was hot - the window opened onto a busy alley so the curtain needed to be pulled shut which stopped any breeze coming in. Also the bathroom seemed partially renovated - the water connection to the toilet was loose, the shower knob had come off, and there were large grooves and a hole in the floor instead of a grate over a drain.

    Price, location, security. The owner was readily available to fix maintenance issues and answer questions.

    The owner is very nice person. I arrived at this inn 4:00am, because my flight arrived at the airport 2:30am. Then, the owner waited for me in front of the inn at 4:00am. I was very impressed. This is one of the most reasonable accommodations in Georgetown. Highly recommended inn for single traveler.

    Toilet flushing did not work at all times, you needed to try to flush it several times until it worked. When I arrived there was a huge cockroach in the bathroom, but with the help of the trash bin I was able to throw it outside.

    I didn't have high expectations as I read the previous reviews. The room was good size, had mosquito net on top of the bed. Had a table, chair and a fan. Could have been a bit cleaner but was okay for the few nights. Overall the stay was okay.

    The room was very basic. Just a fan and a bed. The bed was not very comfortable. There was no hot water.

    Julian's guesthouse represented a good value in Georgetown. The price was good. Jillian was very honest and friendly. The guest house was well located close to a main road but not noisy.

    This guest house could be a great place if the plumbing and presentation were taken care of. It appeared that repairs or upgrades were in process and so there was a feeling that it was not complete.

    I only had a one-night stay on my way to the airport. The place served my purpose for the hours we spent there.

    The bedroom ceiling was leaking and the floor was often wet. The shower didnt´get hot enough On friday they have a karaoke at the restaurant upstairs and it was very noise

    The Guesthouse has a great central location, near, street markets, supermarkets, restaurants, shopping mall and banks. It´s also very short walking distance from most of the sightseeings in the city. The room was very basic but ok fora short term stay. The staff helped me with all the information I needed and called a taxi for me to go to the airport.

    The price of the room and the strength of the wifi

    Julian Guesthouse was a great place to stay. The owner, Julian, was extrememly helpful. The room was basic, and for the price quite expensive. The internet was not the best, and was difficult to video call friends/family. The guesthouse is very close to everything and I enjoyed my stay there.

    There was no electricity for a couple of hours for the last two days I’ve stayed here although it is not the owner’s fault. The room is pleasant but not quite clean based on my standard. The internet connection was quite poor.

    the place is centrally located between the public transport and the tourist attractions in the city. The owner was very accommodating and helpful.

    Had some noisy Cubians in the room beside mine for the 5 days of my 7days visit.... karaoke singing day & nigh...& super loud TV... had a chat with the owner & was moved to a different room on the same floor with empty rooms both sides of me...... My holidays was from October 8th-27th & was thinking of extending my stay there by another week but I decided not to...& made other arrangements. Great Location/external surroundings/ quiet externally... the price was affordable if u don't wanna spend your money on just accommodations 👍🏾 The owner Julian is very friendly & accommodating as much as he can🙏🏽🙏🏽.. The place needs some upgrades & ground rules needs to be clearly defined. Cheers

    The hardwood lacquered floors in the hallways should be carpeted instead because it's noisy & can be heard when anyone is walking through the hallways & not a good experience when you're super tired & trying to get a good night's sleep from the eventful day..... the Walls needs to be sound proofed...& the doors @ the bottom needs to be sealed which will help with to reduce the noise..

    The facility looked run down once you entered the building but it was kept clean. The wooden floor made footsteps in the building audible on the upper floors.

    The location is good. The food was acceptable and the staff were friendly and accommodating.

    A little bit rundown. The making of the rooms was inconsistent. they hosted a karaoke night that was quite loud if you wanted to stay in your room.

    The owner was very helpful. The food was good. The air conditioning worked well and there’s a TV in the room. wi-Fi was very reliable.

    This is not a fancy hotel, it's clean but not super clean, it's central Georgetown, so it can be a bit noisy during the weekend

    Located in central Georgetown, Julian's guest house offers affordable rooms where you can feel safe. Julian is an excellent host, he and his staff will make you feel at home.
