Adding guestbook to my wordpress site

The easiest way by far would be as you suggested to use a page coupled with comments. Restyle it so that it looks more like a guestbook.

I’m sure there are plugins out there that do this but I don’t see the point as you’ll need to restyle them anyway and it just slows down your site.
