You have to share the bathroom with other guest and also the showers are small. The bed was old and my body was sleeping in a hole made by clients over the years. The room was cold and without any type of heat. The morning breakfast was a joke, the best and only worth eating was the green bananas. Under the room it’s a bar that is func

although it looks a little shabby on tbe outside the room was clean and warm the owner Peter really went the extra mile to be accomodating, giving recommendations for local spots to eat its above a karaoke bar so it was a little loud but not obnoxiously so, and Peter did offer to move me to a different room if the noise too much overall a very good value for money place to stay, especially with the complementary breakfast

Scruffy & dirty, as soon as i saw the condition of the building, i wasn't staying there, i was assured by the owner that the rest of the premises had been refurbished and was good but im afraid one look inside confirmed for me, i wouldn't be staying there so i left and had to pay for another hotel

Wonderful

I’m a solo female traveller and it was really safe, you’re from the center but there’s a bus at 2/3 minutes walking distance that goes directly in the center and then to move around in the center there’s a lot of free bus. The breakfast is really good! You can do laundry and on weekdays there’s really few people. There’s a lot of music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, but with earplugs or AirPods you’re good-it’s wasn’t really a problem for me.
