Overall a my 3 day stay was ok. Simplified below:
PROS
- great price
- excellent location
- kind host
- private small unit with decent space
- sofa bed was surprisingly comfy
CONS
- very strong musky and moldy smell. this is because the dirty shower water flows back into the room and gets absorbed by the floor rug. As it appears to not be cleaned regularly, the smell now permeats the room.
- unfortunately my sheets weren't clean; fecal matter could be seen on one of them, cat hair and stale food particles could be seen on the other. Also The towel provided is about 1/4 the size of actual bathtowel.
- lots of noise from very early in the morning; the windows don't allow much privacy as opposite buildings get to see inside room.
- small cockroaches are present in the kitchen - so be sure to close all your bags to prevent them from travelling back home with you.
I'd recommend only spending a night or two here. The mouldy smell makes it very difficult to sleep, I even bought air freshener but that made little difference. Ofcourse This is not a hotel but I think guests should atleast have clean pillow cases, and bed linings and bed sheets. the floor rug should be cleaned to get rid of the smell.
