Like others have said, it’s all about the location. If that’s your priority, this works out well, but can be risky:
Pros
- Close to restaurants and some cool areas/museums. Really cant go wrong staying anywhere north of the river tho, IMO
- Lots of lighting options for the bed loft and areas
- Loved the guitar provided and that it was tuned for immediate use
- Several appliances included like minifridge, microwave and iron for the price
Cons
- They only do check-in at a specific pre-determined time, and if you’re over 30 or so minutes late for checkin, your entire booking WILL be canceled. My flight was delayed and of course I had no internet coming from the states, but the owners told me i had fifteen mins to arrive or I’d be canceled. Luckily I made it, or I’d have been shit out of luck in a foreign country. Could be a very stressful beginning of your trip if anything goes wrong.
- Several flights of narrow stairs that smell heavily of cigarettes, so pack light or be in shape
- This may be because of the checkin thing that I didnt ask for more, but I was only given one hand towel (not washcloth) and one big towel for a four night stay.
- Pictures werent very accurate. Thought there would be a mat I could exercise on from the photos but there is none.
