Description
The Ivy Guesthouse and Bar II is related to the same-named popular bar and guesthouse in town. Set in a two-storey house, you're only a five-minute walk from the old market area. Rooms are well-sized and clean, though they can be a little noisy around 4am when other guests' alarms go off! Overall the whole place has a homely feel to it. Out front there is a pool table, a pleasant restaurant and a lay-about area, with comfortable reclining chairs and a pool table. The food is good backpacker fare, with the potato-cake-things great value and good hangover material. There is also an upstairs terrace with more lazy chairs and a hammock. Very friendly staff. A very good, congenial, backpacker orientated spot. Recommended.

I moved over to Ivy II after a few weeks at another guesthouse (I'm a long-termer) and are nothing less than thrilled. Good location next to the river (and just a few minutes walk from town and bar street). The food is absolutely yummy -- and surprisingly cheap for the quality and portions. COLD beer, great vibe, good music at the bar and very friendly staff. Also have bicycles for rent for $1.50/day and an upstairs 'chill out' room complete with hammocks and cable TV. Highly recommended!

The amok fish at the bar is fabulous. Staff are really friendly and informative. Rooms are clean. Located near the Old market.

Very helpful staff and plentiful free maps and info. Cheap rooms of above average but not flash quality. Not right in the town centre but not too far to walk. ANZ Royal ATM is very nearby.
Lovely. -

this is an extremely nice guesthouse. Nice rooms, and superb atmosphere -- friendly staff, very chilled out, with a lovely patio (and terrace), cold beers and good food. Recommended (I wouldn't go anywhere else!!!).
