The place is near to the seaside and train station and cafes and so the location is very good. But the entrance to the place is made of clear glass door. Through the glass, one standing outside the entrance can literally see everything happening in the living room which is on the right hand side and the living room on the left hand side.
Before i can get access to the entrance, i have to pass through a garage which is used by the owner but there is only a sliding door (which cannot be locked) between the garage and the studio.
The only window in the bathroom cannot be locked (no lock) and it is opened to the backyard of the owner’s house which makes me feel unsafe and uncomfortable to use the bathroom. And I found it out when the wind blew open the window.
The heater didn’t work when I stayed but guess it’s an one-off incident.
The host did come by after I raised these issues to her and they agreed to let me cancel the booking for the nights following.
Think this little studio suits a guy better as the privacy and security issues of the place may not too much a concern to a guy.
