    Loved the new and clean room with a comfy bed. Richard is just the epitome of a friendly and welcoming host, even cooking a divine rooftop dinner. Convenient location near the train station and shops. Great value for money. Totally recommend!

    Because who needs clean towels and a view from the room anyway? Just keep those curtains closed and ignore the stains, darling.

    We stayed at Richard's for three nights and it was a wonderful experience. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the tourist strip but quiet and peaceful. Richard is an amazing host, friendly and attentive. He goes above and beyond to make sure guests have a great stay, offering helpful advice and organizing transportation. The breakfast he serves is delicious and the view from the verandah is breathtaking. The rooms are clean and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. Highly recommend!

    Strongly recommend this hotel.

    I had such a wonderful time at Richard Homestay! Richard, the host, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He gave me great advice on what to do and see in the area. The breakfast he prepared was absolutely delicious. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I had a great night's sleep. The view of the tea plantations and hills from the balcony was breathtaking. I highly recommend this homestay for a fantastic stay in Ella!
