One of the toilets was dirty and didn't get cleaned during the time I stayed there. If you stay any longer than checkout time, the host becomes unfriendly.

The location is not far from the subway station. It can be reached in about 5 minutes on foot, which is very convenient.Although you can see the signboard by following the map, you have to go up the stairs to get there. It was our first time to go there, and it was almost midnight when we arrived, so we had to drag our luggage with us. It was very cold and deserted, so I walked around there for a long time before I realized that it was right in front of me!It is recommended that the hotel inform the passengers about this!The advantage is that it is very quiet in a residential area, the price is very cheap, and it also comes with simple breakfast such as toast, jam and juice.Quite suitable for backpackers!Although the room is not big, it is very cozy, and there is a small curtain that can be closed, which provides great privacy.But there are not many toilets, only twoThe staff are very friendly and speak excellent English!

I would recommend it for no more than 1 night. I spend 2 nights there, it was enough. It isnt spacious and they can make effort in the cleaning and creating a good atmosphere. a bit old.. it was excellent at the beginning when they opened.
