Local transport is well-organized and very affordable.

Guesthouse Merabi: Cheap and good?
The Merabi Guesthouse in Makhinjauri near Batumi is a true insider tip for travelers who want to experience Georgian hospitality in a family atmosphere. Just a few kilometers from Batumi’s city center and the Botanical Gardens, the house offers a quiet location and proximity to the mountains and the Black Sea.
The rooms are simply but lovingly furnished—many with a balcony or terrace. The warmth of the hosts, who are on hand with advice and assistance, and often even homemade specialties, is particularly appreciated. Free Wi-Fi, a well-kept garden, and barbecue facilities round out the amenities.
A well-equipped shared kitchen allows guests to self-cater. Or, upon request, the owners will cook a delicious Georgian meal for travelers. One more thing worth mentioning: Batumi’s drinking water quality is considered healthy. Guests are quite impressed, as the price (starting at $7 per night) doesn’t give any indication of the high standard of service one can expect here.
