Clean, friendly place right on the river. The location is a bit strange and feels like it's in the red light district, especially in the evening. The people there are nice, but one night was enough for me!

The location and views are excellent, from the beginning they gave me the wrong thing, then they changed it, and keep in mind that the reception desk works according to its own incomprehensible schedule.

Located in a street with full of bar, massage and restaurants. 7-11 just a minute away. Just few steps of walking this guesthouse can perfectly avoid all the noise, with a peaceful a**osphere and view of the river. …
