Una habitación muy oscura, con salida al jardín compartido por todos con lo que todas las noches se escuchaba el ruido exterior constantemente. Personas con la música, haciendo ruido a todas horas. La limpieza de la habitación justa, con restos de líquidos en la pared y del espacio común también justo. El agua de la ducha fría ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Nov 30, 2018 Nette Unterkunft und sehr freundliche Gastgeberin. Ich war anscheinend der einzige Gast und das Backpackers wirkte daher etwas ausgestorben. Anfangs gab es im Badezimmer kein Wasser und ich wurde morgens um 7 Uhr durch Bauarbeiten geweckt. Leider wurde ich vor meinem Aufenthalt nicht auf die Bauarbeiten Bzw. den Lärm aufmerksam gemacht. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Hanna](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanna-Hotels.d181010.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Cabo San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d180032-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with smoking rooms in Nova Scotia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Nova-Scotia-Hotels-With-Smoking-Rooms.0-0-d11173-tHotelswithsmokingrooms.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Las Vegas Strip](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Strip-Las-Vegas-Hotels.0-n800045-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Albuquerque-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Tamaya-Resort-Spa.h531195.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Great-Canadian-Casino-Resort-Toronto.h94900038.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in St. Catharines](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Catharines-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d10560-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Radisson Resort at the Port](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Canaveral-Hotels-Radisson-Resort-At-The-Port.h4692.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Felix River North/Magnificent Mile](https://www.expedia.ca/Chicago-Hotels-Hotel-Felix-Chicago.h2222364.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Royalton-Splash-Riviera-Cancun.h78626183.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Rock Hotel Cancun - All Inclusive ](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-Cancun.h5279045.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Melbourne (MEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/mel/ottawa-to-melbourne) > > [Flights from Nanaimo, BC (YCD) to Fort Saint John, BC (YXJ-North Peace)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/yxj/nanaimo-to-fort-saint-john) > > [Flights from Dorval (YUL) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/lax/montreal-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from New York, NY (NYC-All Airports) to Boston, MA (BOS-Logan Intl.)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/nyc/bos/new-york-to-boston) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Mexico City (MEX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/mex/halifax-to-mexico-city) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Winnipeg (YWG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/ywg/edmonton-to-winnipeg) > > [Flights from Penticton (YYF) to Spokane (GEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyf/geg/penticton-to-spokane) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Penticton (YYF) to Abbotsford (YXX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyf/yxx/penticton-to-abbotsford) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Philadelphia (PHL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/phl/edmonton-to-philadelphia) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Lahore (LHE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lhe/toronto-to-lahore) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Norfolk (ORF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/orf/vancouver-to-norfolk) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Honda](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Honda.d6204207.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities ### Packages
