Ken is a responsive and helpful host. He sends details that the average person can figure out without having to ask.
The room being a studio as expected is quite small. The good side of this is that the air conditioner can cool the room down in minutes.
A few things that I was hoping for was by now, all TVs shall be smart TVs and that iron and ironing board be provided.
It can be a little cleaner as far as the cookware goes. I didn’t cook cause the electric burner looks to be above the wardrobe collecting dust. The utensils and cups may be cleaned but not to the highest of standards.
A few major point deductions are that one, the hot water in the shower can be cold in about 4 minutes of warm water usage. Also the dish that holds shampoo and whatnot is broken, so it keeps flipping left or right and you’ll need to put things to counter balance.
The amenities about toothpaste and shampoos, etc. being provided seems like they are all from previous guests.
The toilet paper dispenser is also broken so it just sits at the window above the toilet.
There’s also a very foul smell that comes from the wardrobe, which I think is from the mattress inside.
I also found an itinerary from previous guest inside the small drawer at the desk that was from about two weeks ago. Clearly it wasn’t cleaned or checked out as things are scattered and precious guest hairs are still visible.
The location is good but not great. It’s close enough to walk to thing but not close enough to want to really walk and experience things. The restaurants below also doesn’t taste good, but Ken sends out a recommended list. I tried the restaurant downstairs that wasn’t on the list Ken created and I see why.
The room is actually in a small hallway that you need to enter through another doorway. So noises can be heard from the other few units on your small hallway/corridor. You can hear the neighbors talk and the doors open and close.
The windows actually gives very good air to sweep through the small room.
All in all, it’s OK, but a little more tidiness, and new amenities would be great.
FYI the bed is very firm. Caution to any other Americans that likes soft beds like myself!
