“For a budget-conscious stay so close to Manly Beach, this guesthouse presents a mixed bag. It's wonderfully close to the beach and shops, plus offers a quirky, family-oriented vibe with shared kitchen and lounge; however, some reports raise concerns about service and cleanliness that warrant consideration. If those issues are ironed out, this could be a solid pick.”
