The shared kitchen had very few items. It also looked quite dirty. I saw a cleaner that day but maybe I was too early. The cleaner did not do enough. Some things need more cleaning!

Great Location and Basic Comforts!

great locationbasic foodshared bathroom
We had a Single Room. It was very clean. The location is super convenient to the main shopping street. Tour buses meet right across the street! I found a convenience store close with food and clothing.
The bathrooms were shared. There are only two on each floor. Sometimes I had to wait to use the toilet. More bathrooms on each floor are definitely needed.

Acceptable Location, Some Disappointments

The location was good because bus stop number 9 to meet tours was across the road.
The room was small and the window had only single glass, so I could hear everything happening outside.
