The building is still under construction, there was no running water in our room and everywhere was lots of dirt and mold. We left the Guesthouse after one night and went to another place.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

Middling at present

The hotel seemed to be a construction site. The shower and the sink were not functioning, and the padlock to the door was almost impossible. However the next morning, when I requested a better room I was moved to a much better one - the plumbing all worked and the padlock also. And the room was at the rear so much quieter. I suggest waiting to book here until the building works have been completed. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Decent price for a decent stay.

De locatie is super en de kamers zijn degelijk. Lekker bed, prima douche (als er warm water is). Ze zijn echter minder mooi dan op de foto's. Ook ontbrak er nogal wat: beddengoed, handdoek voor de tweede gast, bedlichtjes. Alleen een tl-buis is niet zo gezellig. De medewerkers zijn behulpzaam, maar je moet wel overal zelf om vragen. Pro-actief zijn ze niet. Datzelfde geldt voor de vaak onbemande receptie.
