The property is well worth the price. It's a bit far from the center of the city, but the area is nice. The hosts are also nice and will provide any assistance they can.

Ystävällinen palvelu.

Jouduin keskellä yötä varaamaan majoituksen lennon peruunnuttua, mutta sain olosuhteisiin nöhden todella hyvän majoituksen. Henkilökunta oli erittäin ystävällistä ja minulle myös tehtiin aamiainen pientä majsua vastaan. Ehdottomasti menen samaan paikkaan, kun seuraavan kerran tarvitsen majoitusta kaupungissa.
