The guesthouse is very nice. It is a well-run business and was spacious considering the number of rooms they have. My room was huge! And, the internet was perfect. No issues at all with that aspect of things and was even able to work during the day. The place was pretty quiet and the people I did see in the hall were friendly.
That said, I did have a few issues with my check-in, not entirely Candida's fault. Candida allowed me to check-in a little early which was very gracious. It was listed as self check-in so I didn't think she would need to be there to let me in. I didn't have the Airbnb app installed so communication was delayed and fractured. I waited almost an hour to be let into the guesthouse and room, which Candida did herself. It was lovely to have the personal touch.
Also, I felt cleanliness was slightly lacking. My room was clean and the linens were crispy white. My room smelled a little like it hadn't been aired out, despite the massive windows. And, I noticed the floor was a little dirty so was happy I had my flip-flops with me.
There are a few bathrooms that are shared between all the guests. Considering how many people can potentially be using them, the bathrooms were relatively clean on the surface. But, if you lift the toilet seat, there was a noticeable mess. I thought maybe it was because it was the end of the day, but the next day was the same (even after the cleaning team had supposedly passed through).
There was a little corner of mold in the ceiling of the bathroom which can be hard to get rid of in such a humid climate/space, but something I definitely noticed. The shower itself was clean and there were also some products to use for my convenience.
The location is great and I would recommend staying there if you're looking for a hostel-like stay close to the metro.
