Close to supermarkets. Have stayed previously in a self contained unit, (which was good) but this time in the back packer side, Room was clean and airey, but the noise level was bad from other guests returning from concert and ,especially from 5 am with 2 or 3 groups leaving then, Ended up checking out at 6.30am too , Overall place was good but bathroom facilities for guests overdue for a upgrade, Would return again though. ##### Joiy Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jiansheng Jan 23, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The kitchen is multiply equipped for cooking and make our stay convenient. ##### Jiansheng Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sam Jan 25, 2026 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Ok room, fairly clean whatbyiu expect for a hostel ##### Sam Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen Sep 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly staff ##### Kathleen Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas Apr 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was a wonderful place to stay with a really homely feel and beautiful common areas.
