Sibayak Guest house

Room is very minimalist/very basic, not very clean, we had to clean table and toilet seat by ourself, but view from balcony was great. You have free drink water at the reception. We had a big dissapointig moment with the manager regarding scooter rental of the hotel. They were very old and we had a break down with the scooter. It was in the evening far away from hotel. We called the Manager he just said we need call a mechanic and hung up the phone, as we dont speak indonesian it was horrible but many locals helped us. Later the manager didnt want to come to an accommodation. We payed repair of his scooter. They just take money but no service when you in trouble, we DONT recommend the scooter rental service of that guesthouse!

Room was fine, would have been better to have a proper curtain for the window though. they offer food and drinks to very affordable prices, which you can enjoy from the terrace with lake view. Drinking water is for free. And they also have motorbikes for rent. Pretty good offer for the money you pay.

With this price it is good

All good .

This was one of the most horrible experiences i have ever had! First of all rooms were disgusting and in a sketchy basement area. Lot's of dust, dead spiders on thr walls, alive spiders underneath the mattress, no net, no fan, old furniture to the point where you are like inside of a dead ship, ants on the mattress, holes on the door so mosquitos are guaranteed of a feast, no hot water, stains on the towel and ripped pillows. DISGUSTING! I would say the sheets looked clean (ants aside) but with the scenario around it? I can only imagine... The worst part is that I tried to reason with the owner and wanted a better room or at least my money back but he was so so so rude! I was trying to help him improve his own service but he didn't care the least. In the end he actually told me in the rudest way possible to get out. I will never but ever try this "guest house" again.. and neither should other people. At least until it gets a make over and a proper manager.
