Room was decent size and clean. The free washer and dryer on the 3rd was nice to have available. Only complaint is that mattress was a little too firm for my liking, but wasn't terrible and I still able to sleep well enough. I would rebook here again.

It was OK for the price as it's a place to put away our stuff. The area was close to amenities and the subway is within a few mins walking distance. It was a self-check in/out. They change the towels and garbage daily. The area was quiet. The bed was hard but again, for the price, I can't really complain. There was free use of laundry service. They also respond to the messages really fast. The photos are of the places close to the area.
Convenient, friendly host, spacious room , value for money , great location and food but
Bathroom shower is an issue , shower head and faucet are not user friendly , strong sewage smell at the ground level. Our room was on the first floor at the back alley . Other rooms may not have the same issue .

Unterkunft leider nicht wie auf Expedia dargestellt.
Zimmer extrem klein, Bad etwas eklig und auch Kakerlaken sind hier zu Hause.
Bettdecken nicht sauber und ohne Bezug genauso wie Kissen.
Würde ich nicht nochmal buchen.
