Hello All,
Generally, the place is clean and the hosts are very particular about house rules such as no wearing of shoes in house and usage of facilities.
Alee's place is located 1 kilometre away from the nearest Train Station, so if you catch a train, prepare for a long walk. We mostly opted to travel in bus due to this.
There are variety of stores and restaurants around which was good.
The hosts do not supply any bottled water nor bathing soap, so please bring those stuff with you including Detergent if you wish to wash your clothes. The washing machine is provided and so is the hangers. The bathroom and toilets are shared with others. So at times you need to wait for your turn.
The room was aircon and had tv and fan. There was no milk or sugar for tea making though.
The room is located close to a street where big trucks pass through including noise making motorcycles, so it does become a nuisance at times. Even cats and squirrels run around on the roofs so a bit of disturbance there. The bed seemed broken as if was making noises everytime you turn.
The hosts valued our privacy which was good.
When it was time to go, the host was very impatient and made us feel unwelcomed. So much for super host! We were asleep around 8am when you could hear the host shouting at other guests for something (disturbing our sleep) and also cleaning the washroom by making way to much noise such as banging the bucket.
I only saw and met Alee on my final day. She even sat infront of the room from 9am and waited for us to leave. We left around 9.30am and felt as if we are being chased or something. Bad experience there.
For what its worth, its good to stay for a night or so. But do not expect much kindness from hosts. The other guests were more kindly and engaged in conversation with us.
Thanks.
