Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Albert the owner and everyone he works with are so kind, and make adventuring on Lamu Island so simple. He provides a map and reviews of restaurants, provides advice, and schedules activities. My bed was comfortable and my room, while basic, was exactly as expected from photos and provided exactly what was needed for a budget stay on Lamu.
Negative: Don't be deterred by cold showers- they feel excellent after exploring Lamu!
Summary: Perfect budget option with excellent host.
