  : I kind of like places that keep their spirit without falling into the trap of comfort tourism. If you want such a place, a little run down, but authentic, then thats the place to go.

  : Location
  : In my room, there were windows facing the roof of the building. During my stay at the hotel, there were repairing works on that roof. Firstly, it was very noisy!! Someone was constantly walking on the roof, talking, drilling. This was happening all the time, right after I had checked in, and in the morning of the next day. Despite it being a Saturday and only 8:30 AM! It was terrible. Secondly, dust and wood shavings were falling right into my room, so it was dirty. And thirdly, the workers were constantly by my window, no comfort or personal space. I am very disappointed.

  : Its student dormitory which is used for accomodation as hotel. Location is excellent to center of city. Parking is possible for free inside the dormitory.
  : There is kettle in the hall for entire floor... which is nice.. but hosts dont have any cups, spoons in the rooms :-D and kitchen on the floor is closed and used as store for cleaning lady... somebody need to think little bit more with this approach as hotel. At least open the kitchen on the floor and provide some cups, spoons ;-). It will be much smater. But overall... its perfect accomodation mainly for location and price.

  : The room was spacious and clean and there were no issues with how warm it was (see comment re a/c). The price was very reasonable but don't expect any extras such as shower gel, fridge or tea or coffee. The hotel is well placed for access to the old town and there are two supermarkets within about 200m. The area is quiet and I felt quite safe as a solo traveller. There is a 24 hour receptionist.
  : After booking the room I had an email to warn me that the room was in the loft space and would have no air conditioning, so I was offered a fan (but no recompense.) There were NO CURTAINS! Since I was there in August it meant that the sun was streaming in from 5am and there was no chance of getting to sleep after that. There was no kettle in the room although I realised later that the kettles are kept in the corridor and must remain there, so you would have to make your hot drink and then walk to your room. I couldn't get the TV to work and I wasn't sure what would happen with getting the room serviced - as it happens it wasn't serviced while I was there but there again I was only there for four nights. I feel the hotel would benefit from having a directory in each room, or at least available in the lobby.

  : During check-in, I encountered a very rude elderly lady who almost yelled at me when I asked her to repeat and clarify things in English. It's understandable that she may not be fluent in English, but she did possess basic English skills; however, she chose not to be friendly about it. Adding to my frustration, there were no curtains or blinds in the room, and there were scaffolders working right outside my window, as you can see in the picture I've attached. The lack of privacy was quite unsettling, given that the workers had an unrestricted view inside. I simply cannot fathom the decision to rent out rooms while there is ongoing scaffolding work just outside the windows. Furthermore, the street noise was constant. Never here again.

  : Good location, very friendly staff.
  : It was a bit loud due to ongoing renovation of the building. One evening there was no warm water in the shower.

  : Spatious rooms, clean, excellent location, normally it's a student residence converted into the hotel. Nice and simple
