Nice, basic stay
Room was decent size and clean. The free washer and dryer on the 3rd was nice to have available. Only complaint is that mattress was a little too firm for my liking, but wasn't terrible and I still able to sleep well enough. I would rebook here again.

Value for money
Convenient, friendly host, spacious room , value for money , great location and food but Bathroom shower is an issue , shower head and faucet are not user friendly , strong sewage smell at the ground level. Our room was on the first floor at the back alley . Other rooms may not have the same issue .

Unterkunft leider nicht wie auf Expedia dargestellt. Zimmer extrem klein, Bad etwas eklig und auch Kakerlaken sind hier zu Hause. Bettdecken nicht sauber und ohne Bezug genauso wie Kissen. Würde ich nicht nochmal buchen.

必要な設備は整っていた。タオルがある程度積んであって特に制限なかったのはうれしい お湯はあまり長時間使いすぎるとでなくなったのとシャワー、トイレ間にカーテンなしなのでシャワーに不便さはあると感じた ただ安いのと寝心地は悪くなかったので寝るだけと割り切れば良いと感じた

寝るだけなので、安くて、個室シャワーあり、 スーツケース広げられる広さありました。 セキュリティ面で少し不安はありますが、 ゲストハウスってこんな感じかなと思います。 階段が急+狭いので重いスーツケースがあると少し大変だと思います。 掃除するわけでもないのに、たまに部屋に入るのはなぜ?と思いました。換気? (部屋に戻ると窓が開いている)

Chambre très vetuste et sale , matelas avec ressort très désagréable, porte avec seulement un petit verrou. Heureusement je n'y suis resté que 3 nuits.
