Issues with the size and location of bathrooms
According to the guests, the bathrooms are not literally en-suite and are found across the corridor. In addition, the shower areas are not that big and guests reported seeing cobwebs on the ceiling. However, guests also added that the water supply is just stable.
negative:
Guesthouse is a bit hard to find
Some guests said that finding the property is tricky because there are no proper signs leading to it. Thus, you are advised to ask the staff beforehand for clear instructions on how to get to the property.
negative:
Ineffective room soundproofing
The rooms seem to have poor sound isolation systems since guests can hear sounds from the hallways and from the floors above them. Closing the windows and wearing earplugs helped some of the guests to sleep well, though.
