Expected basic courtesy!

It was one of those experience that needs to be forgotten. Yes, the owner did everything to make the stay comfortable but the fact that they had closed the gate before we came back and had to go through ordeal before they open the shutters!

清潔ではない。

夜部屋に戻ったらゴキブリが3匹いた。 ホットシャワーはない。 バスルームの窓は閉まらない仕組み。 ユニバーサルのコンセントではない。 WiFiはフロント近くしかつながらない。

2017/01/25現在閉鎖してます。改修工事中のため今現在取り壊しの最中です。新しくオープンするのはいつかわかりません。とりあえずか数ヶ月は予約しない方がいいです。

旅馆离市区有点距离，在公路旁，因此噪声挺大的。没有热水是比较不能接受的，房间也整理不干净，不推荐。
