Communication with the Mr.Asim was very good and fast. We didn’t see the host and we checked in by electric lock. Building was renovated recently. Elevator clean but very small. The room was like the pictures but it’s smaller than I imagined. Everything looked like it’s been renovated recently but unfortunately it looked fast cheap job. There was a leak from our shower door but I didn’t inform the host cause we didn’t want to move to another room. Kitchen tools limited but fair enough for a small meal. The first two nights were calm but the third one a very noisy customer got the room front of us and we could hear every bump and people talking. The people next us cooked and the whole hallway smelled like old frying oil but there wasn’t any smell at our room. The day I was leaving I heard a woman moaning loud and the sound seemed coming from the 3rd floor. That was awkward and made me think that anybody can occupy this facility for any reason since they didn’t ask for ours ID’s or passport copies.
‏Location is very strategical but not the positive strategic location. There’s a lot of shops with rude owners who didn’t wear masks during a global pandemic under the building and a restaurant which blow its smoke toward our window and entered the room through the air conditioning system sometimes. There are a lot of coffee shops and restaurants around but a low income cheap quality stuff and the good ones 10 to 15 minutes walking distance. The area attracts a lot of low income people since it’s near the metro and the port and sometimes you feel nervous walking back at night ( nothing against low income people but I mean poor and look desperate ). At the day it’s very busy and smoky.
‏It’s fair price but I am really sure we could have found much better for the same price if we booked earlier.
Overall it’s okay place to crash couple nights and that’s it.
