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.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
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.
