Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small rooms — Several guests note that rooms are on the smaller side, suitable for sleeping but not spacious. Triple rooms for three people can feel cozy.
  • Reserved staff — While helpful, staff are described as not very talkative or reserved, which may not suit guests expecting a chatty welcome.

  • No pets allowed — The property does not permit pets, which may be a limitation for travellers with animals.

“We stayed close to the centre, tucked away in a quiet alley with a cool zebra graffiti. The room was small but comfortable for the three of us. The lady running the place was reserved but helpful when we had questions. We found a bustling food market nearby with a wide selection of tasty dishes, and there were plenty of tourist-oriented restaurants, cafes, and bars. We also enjoyed visiting the nearby temples on foot. For us, it was the perfect choice.”
