Villa Alexandrea Bed & Breakfast

When we arrived at Villa Alexandrea Bed & Breakfast, we found that it was not within walking distance to the Falls as advertised. My husband wasn't able to do the long walk. The gentleman who checked us in could not speak English. He was nice and accommodating however we could not communicate with him. We reserved 2 nights but told him we would only be staying one night. He indicated that would be fine and that we would not be charged for the additional night. I then put it in writing as I felt he didn't understand. At Breakfast we met a couple from China and I asked them to please speak to the owner in their native language to once again explain. We were once again reassured from the owner we would not be charged for the 2nd night. When I complained to booking.com that we did not get our refund for the 2nd night, the hotel responded that they knew nothing about our cancelling. The room was clean but very small & no central AC. The landscaping is awful. Breakfast was very good. If you cannot speak Mandarin you may encounter problems.

The villa needed a little tlc to make the outside more pleasing to the eye but the inside was clean, tidy and comfortable. A little confusion on the booking in but rooms were lovely and pleasant. Breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay there again

We booked this bed and breakfast for New Year’s Eve and were looking for a quiet place away from Clifton Hill but close enough to the Falls and other attractions. This bed and breakfast fit the bill. Our host, Ted, was very accommodating and friendly and went out of his way to drive us to the Falls on a rainy New Year’s Eve. We got a nice bottle of wine and a healthy breakfast. Our room was small but comfortable. There is free parking and free WiFi. The decor is a bit dated but the house is clean. A great alternative to a hotel.
