Room was extremely small and bathroom was terrible. After first night we requested a different room. Staff was very accommodating and we gladly paid for the upgrade to a little larger room with a decent bathroom and better WI-FI signal. The beds are very firm

Staff were helpful, owners served breakfast each morning, which was AMAZING! I stayed on the second floor, room #5. Hotel was quiet because all the guests (except 1) made an effort to be quiet and respectful (walls are thin). It was a basic hotel, cute balconies, bathroom light didn’t always work and the bed was hard as a rock but otherwise I liked the place and would recommend.

메인 도로에서 도보로 12분 떨어져 있어 편리한 공간이며, 상대적으로 편안히 쉴 수 있는 공간입니다. 숙소에서 가까운 거리에 향수를 느낄 수 있는 한국식당(김삿갓)이 있어 이게 더 좋았습니다. 숙소는 전반적으로 깨끗하고 더운 물이 나와서 좋았습니다. 주 도로에서 골목으로 약 30m지점에 위치합니다. 바로 옆집에서 모터를 빌리면 7만낍이나 도로변에 나가서 빌리면 8~10만낍이니, 이것도 참조하세요~^^ 2(3)박이라함은, 호텔스닷컴을 통하여 2박했고 호텔에서 1night 를 더 요청해서입니다. 다음 기회에도 이 호텔을 이용할 예정입니다.

1階のダブルルームに2泊しました。部屋は写真で見るより狭かったですが、荷物が置ける棚やカウンターがあって機能的でした。また、仏領時代の鉄橋が見えるパティオが部屋の前にあったので、そちらに座ることも多かったです。バスルームではシャワーブースが仕切られておらず、シャワーを浴びるとトイレのシートまで濡れてしまうのと、窓がなくて十分換気できないのが気になりました。冷蔵庫の中など、掃除が行き届いていない箇所があったのは残念でした。
