Ali's place is in a great location only a short walk from Hyde Park, multiple metros, bus stops and Queenways way street, which had all our shopping needs. Ali's communication is spectacular, even when we were in Australia we had almost an instant response. Ali let us leave our bags at his office during the day until we could check in, and he got the cleaner to clean our room first so that we could check in early (12pm). The room was large with a table, kettle and the microwave. This was a good touch considering the room was very clean, however shared areas were not. The toilets, floors and kitchen were very dirty. We tried to use the washing machine but the other tenants left their wet clothing in their all day and night. We only meet one of the other tenants. However, I had read such reviews mentioning these points prior to stay at Ali's so we knew this would be the case. Ali's place is good value for money for a couples traveling or a pair of two.
