A great place to rest. Although the bathroom is on the first floor and the master bedroom is on the second floor, it does not affect the quality of living. It feels very comfortable!

Stayed here with my family for a few nights. Excellent location near the train station and near to shops and restaurants. Probably better for smaller parties as space is at a premium. Also not sure I would recommend for small children or elderly/disabled as the loo is upstairs (which is outdoors in the courtyard and steep) and the bathroom downstairs. You cannot really take cases upstairs. However for an authentic experience it is great.

4/5
The overall atmosphere was very good. What bothered me a little was that the lights in the bedroom on the 2nd floor couldn't be completely turned off, and the bathroom was on the 1st floor, so I had to go outside after bathing and then go to the 2nd floor, which was a bit inconvenient.
