When staying here, you'll likely find that the staff are very competent. Guests noted the employees were quick to solve problems and very friendly during the check-in process. They also said they spoke English well, which was crucial in some cases.
Negative Reviews
negative:
No Kettle in the Rooms
Most guests knew prior to arrival that these accommodations are very basic, but some of them still said they would have really loved it if the rooms had kettles for making hot beverages. If this is something that's really important to you, consider bringing a travel kettle from home.
negative:
Soundproofing is Not Sufficient
Although guests were usually not bothered by street noises when staying here, there were many comments that it was too easy to hear other guests talking or slamming their doors. Packing a pair of earplugs to use may be helpful if you are characteristically a light sleeper.
negative:
The Rooms Are Too Small
Some guests were disappointed in the overall size of their rooms. They reported feeling most cramped when travelling with numerous bags, or staying with other people.
