Mount Crest Lodge

You'll have to step onto a narrow path that sometimes goes up, sometimes goes down, takes a turn or two to the left, to the right, to finally emerge in front of "Silver Dome Guest House". Mind the map to arrive there for taking a wrong turn is easily done, especially during night time. The building is deeply hidden into Ella which happened to be, as another foreigner had once put it to me, only "a street of bars, restaurants and services for Westerners mostly". The guest house is typically the place where those Westerners get stocked on the mountainside with the purpose of filling all these businesses the rest of the time. And in this guest house, pleasantly kept by two kind owners, apparently father and son, will stock you the appropriate way. The place is quiet, clean, charming, a bit dated - ok, it's not a four stars hotel but you can get over it, right? The common terrace that makes available incongruous items such as an iron, a hammock together with a small library will probably achieve the unintentional goal of making this place kind of unique.

A wonderful and very wellcoming place to stay. The owner treats his guests like his own family members, me and my mom - we felt taken care of, we felt safe and protected, we got lots and lots of good and helpful information and had a WONDERFUL, wonderful experience with the owner and his wife, who's home-baked cake I will always remember with saliva in my mouth. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!
