Everything about this place was perfect! Check-in was easy, the room was lovely, the staff were super friendly, and the shared spaces were spotless. The cherry on top? A superb location (10/10)!

You get a room in a shared apartment. The beds were comfortable and clean, the shower (which is shared) as well. WiFi is satisfactory. We didn’t meet our hosts, as everything is fine online, including checking in. Some countries, like Sweden, Norway, Germany, etc prohibit the sending of pictures of your ID, which is needed to be checked in, so be aware of that. A nice room in a great location. Despite the heat (38°C in October, yay Climate Change) the room was livable, thanks to a fan. Not a hotel, but sufficient for a night or two.
Hi, a couple of things that might help others before booking - the place is a regular large apartment that you would be sharing with others - we, a couple, had been given a room with one bed, 1,20m wide. The bed shaped a bulge in the middle. Both of us could not sleep in it. I tried to catch some sleep on the floor - 2 bathrooms for 9 rooms, which are in a good condition and regularly cleaned, however, might not always be clean because not everyone leaves them in a tidy condition - its in the heart of the old town, perfect for just walking everywhere, however the streets are busy until late at night and the windows let the noise in, so no way to escape that. When we stayed there, there was also a construction side close by. Sledgehammers started around 8 AM. Also no way to escape the noise. - in summer, the room also heated up to more that 30°C and there is no A/C and due to the setup also no real ventilation
Me and a friend stayed here for one night before BBK. Good Central location, quiet (we were on the top Floor so that would've helped) close to shops, food etc. Little convenience store 5 mins away for snacks and water. On our floor there were two lovely modern showers and toilet combos. Looked almost new and good pressure on the shower! Always a bonus. Room was basic but clean, was all we needed, and WiFi was good as it was nearby.
In the old central city so location is huge advantage. Everything else, including the hike up to the 5th floor was fine.
