We have fantastic experience. The room was spacious and well-maintained, providing a comfortable stay. Although the bathroom and kitchen were shared with other guests, we were fortunate to have the space to ourselves during our stay. The owner was exceptionally nice and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed. The kitchen was well-equipped for two people, making it easy to prepare our meals. The room had a comfortable bed and good wifi which added to our comfort. I also appreciated having a separate entrance, which offered additional privacy and convenience. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and convenient place to stay.
