Mr.Haile, the host, was the first-rate contributor for our exceptional stay in Addis Ababa. He helped us in everyway. Even before we arrived we started inquiring stuffs such as airport pick-up, sim card, places to visit and Haile always made us satisfied. He was also very responsive(via Booking.com message) and spoke fluent English. The place was secure and staffs were friendly too. Overall, you can't have anything better than Wib in this price.

    We had an exceptional stay at the Wib guesthouse, with every aspect exceeding our expectations. The Manager, Mr. Haile, stood out with his unwavering dedication. His warm and welcoming personality made us feel like personal guests rather than customers. His efforts to go above and beyond in helping and supporting us truly enhanced our overall experience. The guesthouse is very comfortable and with a great courtyard added to the charm of our stay, making it a memorable and delightful getaway. Highly recommend this gem of a guesthouse.

    Haile, the owner of this guest house is very friendly , helpful and accommodating.. Free shuttle service to and from the airport as well ! I appreciated his tips saving me time and stress. The rooms are clean, cosy and comfortable in a quiet avenue . The location is in a decent part of Addis and only takes about 15 to 20 minutes to the airport . Other parts are easily accessible via taxi and there are a few small malls walking distance . I was happy to stay there a 2nd time .

    Pleasant stay at the guest house, but a confusing and shady area where this guesthouse is located. Every taxi driver was hesitant to go to this area for drop.

    A really nice boutique hotel, well equipped large rooms, fitted to high quality. Quiet and comfortable. Good breakfasts included in the price. It's centrally located in Olympia/ Kirkos, but down a quiet cobbled back street. The staff are all very friendly and helpful
