Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Position was excellent - within walking distance of many eateries and transportation. The staff were friendly and helpful, able to assist with the many questions of new travellers. Despite being on a main road, you could not hear the traffic at all. Bed was comfortable. Room quite small however, and some fixtures need fixing. Otherwise an excellent stay.

Great little spot
Room was good, small (as expected) but comfortable. I was surprised by how worn out and frayed the towels were. The staff were lovely. My room was right next to the elevator, so got a bit of noise/vibration from that but it wasn't terrible. Otherwise, the AC unit provides excellent background white noise.

Overall a Delight
We were impressed with the comfort and the hosts were very accommodating and lovely. We had a couple of small issues with the room. The bathroom light switch was faulty and embedded further into the switch unit, making it troublesome to use. There was a little bit of damp on the walls and the shower basin was a bit damaged. Aside from that our stay was very pleasant.
