There is no staff on duty. Everything is run through messages on WhatsApp. The electricity went off for 5-10 minutes my first night without notice, the pipes make gutling amd burping sounds everytime the watee is used (for washing hands, flushing toilet or showering)

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The check in was remotely done, quick and smooth but the room provided was terrible. The double bed is made using two single beds, not comfortable at all. The room was full of mosquitos and was a graveyard of dead flies and mosquites all around the walls. Toilet was clean but was small and getting into and out of the shower is unsafe as it is very easily slippable

The rooms were comfortable, the location is great, and the staff was super nice and responsive. Although the check-in process and communication is all on-line, they always replied immediately to all my messages and requests. The only downside was the shower of the shared bathroom, which was a bit unsteady. But overall, I had good experience!

The bathroom was a little smelly when you flushed the toilet, no matter the contents inside. The entrance is a little confusing, the light is automatic so you have to switch it on when you’re entering. The overall room was nice, the bed was very comfortable, a little creaky. Overall nice stay. Had a problem with my booking and the owner was very lenient and helped me out over the phone. There is no lobby or staff, just an apartment style entrance.

Pretty poor in all honesty. The bed should have been a double but was two single mattresses together. The shower was awful with a massive step just to get into it.

This was a rushed, last minute choice. Only stayed for one night. The door was opened remotely after me trying to get in touch with the person in charge for half an hour. Couldn’t use the elevator as the provided key didn’t work. The room was clean but crammed and felt cheap and worn out. All noice from outside could be heard from the tram to people and scooters during the night. I checked-out as soon as possible. The place is well connected to the train station on foot.

Very good system to entry to the rooms. Easy money only. They do not expense oil to put in the doors, when open it, very noisy. This is "Supposed" to be an B&B, but no breakfast is offered. They need to change the name for rooms only, this is fake information. Also, NO Information about around, restaurants or how to get to rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property is in a good location, close to the main train/bus station, but at night it's kind of a bit scary, we got stopped 3 times by people asking us for money and following us to the apartment, however nothing happened. Showers are very small and for a medium to big person like me is very hard to take a shower, other than that everything is fine, rooms are clean. I would suggest to put a second pillow per person in the wardrobe for persons like me who like to sleep on two pillows (the ones we found were very soft). Sofia and Ginevra are both very accommodating and helpful.

El personal en cargado tiene una pésima metodología de comunicación, resulta que el check in era hasta las 6pm y mi tren llegaba alas 9pm me hicieron pagar 25€ extra porque dos que me iba a recibir alguien (no recibió nadie y en expidia no decía esas condiciones del check in d Eder así no lo reservaba no pueden condicionar mi intinerario) les hice saber que no tenía internet y que me dieran indicaciones para el ingreso, pues que no que alguien me iba a llamar cuando estuviera ahí tuvimos que decirle al del taxi que nos prestara su cell en fin mil peros, logramos entrar porque otra persona iba saliendo del edificio no porque estuviera la persona que supuestamente me recibiría por la cual se pagó extra, y el lugar nada que ver las imágenes de expidia es todo avejentado y con olor a húmedo, no fincionaba el internet (y lo comprobamos con otros huéspedes) Tiene buena ubicación nada más pero hay más hospedajes con buena ubicación y en mejores condiciones en la zona
