The room was fairly clean. Except for the dead bug. No outlets to plug in cell phones. TV did not work. No mirror in room. Bathroom always occupied. Room cold due to window stuck open. Heater did not work. No staff anywhere. Good WiFi.

Good stay.

It was great. The refrigerator didn’t work in the room. I let them know. It’s a shared bath with basic amenities. There is a washer onsite free to use which is amazing. The dryer didn’t dry with heat.

Cheap guesthouse, a bit far away from places and there is no breakfast, the nearest store is about 1.5km away. The room has a fridge and an old tv. Shared kitchen, toilet and shower. There is no staff in the guesthouse.

Clean, fairly central location. Would have liked more flexibility on check-in time or ability to leave luggage. We were able to leave luggage only because other guests let us in. Confusion with other guesthouse with similar name meant a looong walk from bus stop. No lounge. Dining area simply a room with counter and 4 stools. Kitchen had stove top, microwave, kettle, a few dishes.

the room was almost fully occupied by a double bed; no chair, no table and one tiny window which opened. The room was extremely hot with no obvious place to turn off the heat. It was a very unpleasant stay.
