    I always choose this place because it's reliable and has friendly staff. They even helped me with currency advice on my first stay. It suits me perfectly with amenities like Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, massage, laundry, and beach access. Coming back for business trips is a no-brainer.

    The location was particularly good - the hotel looked fairly clean. The room we had was bright and reasonably large with adequate facilities and balcony, for instance. Location: the property was so close to the ocean, the restaurants, and the Gulf of Bengal. We found there plenty of restaurants to eat, like Nautilus that is only 10 minutes' walk away.

    Beachfront location, helpful staff, clean rooms with all basic amenities. A perfect place to stay if you need a TV break and enjoy slow Wi-Fi signals. So thrilling!

    No TV in the balcony view room. But who needs it when you have the beach just a few seconds away?

    We had a wonderful stay at this cozy guest house. The manager and staff were extremely helpful and made us feel at home. The bed was very comfortable, providing a great night's sleep. The location was convenient, with the beach and historical monument within walking distance. We highly recommend taking a boat ride, it was an amazing experience. the value for money was exceptional.

    Nothing to dislike about our stay. ⭐️

    The value for money at Squirrel Nest Guest House was excellent and the room wasnice and neat. The location was perfect, just a minute's walk from the beautiful beach, and there were plenty of good cafes and restaurants nearby. The owners were friendly and helpful, even taking us for a fantastic boat ride.
