Just came back after a 2-night stay. The place was easy enough to find and we didn’t struggle for parking either, location is great.
However, as it is self check-in there isn’t anyone around. Everything is done via text messages and code locks. The first room we were given hadn’t been cleaned at all after the previous guests had left. I let the person at the other end of the text messages know, and we were “upgraded” to another room (slightly larger and had a bathtub instead of a shower). This one had been cleaned, but as soon as we opened the door we were hit by a very strong cigarette smell (which somehow was even stronger in the bathroom). We mentioned it to the owner (didn’t really complain about it, just wanted to make them aware so we wouldn’t be blamed for it), but they didn’t seem too bothered at all (“sure, thank you” was the reply).
The room itself was ok though very outdated, and the whole place really lacks any kind of care. Our bathtub wasn’t draining properly and the toilet was making very loud, long noises randomly, even when not used.
All in all, didn’t want to kick up a fuss as it was only for 2 nights, but there is a big difference between “budget” accommodation and blatant carelessness.
