Aman's Guesthouse is a family run guesthouse in Tuk Tuk, Lake Toba. It is located on the quite side of the peninsula, within walking distance of many bars and restaurants. It has been renovated over the past 4 years to provide 7 rooms. 4 of these are generously sized doubles with hot water showers and lake views. 3 of them are smaller singles (you could squeeze 2 people into the beds) with hot water showers. *Please note: These 3 rooms CANNOT accommodate extra beds and DO NOT have lake or mountain views.* There is direct access from the garden to the lake for swimming and kayaking. It also has an on site restaurant which sells light Indonesian food, tea and coffee. Motor bike hire can be arranged from the guesthouse, as can local Batak BBQ pork or fish, laundry, transfers or private tours. Just ask! *Please note: There is wifi available HOWEVER, it does not work that well outside of the restaurant, so if you are in your room, sit back and enjoy the view! Also the access between the rooms, lake and restaurant is via VERY steep stairs.*
