"I don't know how Expedia could list such a property on its website. The property is indicated as a backpacker establishment but it is more a boarding house for the down and out. The premises were filthy and unsanitary, the carpet was solid with dirt and sticky, the sheets had blood stains on them, there was rubbish and boxes lying everywhere in the common areas. I felt unsafe. When I told the proprietor that I wanted to leave she insisted on taking a cancellation fee. There was nothing else...

"The host was really friendly, helpful and accommodating. The suite was immaculately presented and well appointed with everything we could need. The bed was very clean and comfortable with extra pillows if needed. The wee fan was most helpful in the muggy heat however an air con unit would have been bliss. I had issues connecting to the wifi.
