I had to reach out and hour before check in to get the information even though i was told I'd receive it the day before. The shared space was poorlt kept and the private room wasn't cleaned very well. I ordered supplies to clean/disinfect and washed the bedding and towls.

Not all amenities listed were available, building had smoking scent which is claimed to be a non-smoking room.

8/10 Very good

Far away from attractions. Staffs are not so available. Required card information via text is not so professional.
Yuanhui, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is not a hotel, there is no staff, I was locked out of property for 24hrs with all my belongings inside, the pictures show a large room but is actually a small studio apartment with shared living spaces. I was mislead by Expedias advertisement of this property and wasted my money staying in this HOSTEL. DO NOT BOOK !
Paul-michael, 21-night trip

2/10 Poor

Fraud. This is a shared space. Dorm style stuff. Didn’t send the link to check in until the day after check in. Couldn’t even get ahold of anyone to figure out what was happening.
Jason, 13-night trip

2/10 Poor

Unprofessional

The trip was very not worth what we paid considering we didn’t stay there one night due to the uncomfortably loud the other guests staying there where being and considering we didn’t know there was going to be more than just us staying in the place and I proceeded to let the host know we didn’t want to stay there after checking in to the place not even two hours prior I would like to speak to someone who can help me with this situation
Angel, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

They did not send me the check in instructions and I was stranded on the streets for 1 hour before I got lucky and they responded to my chat message. The service phone number they had provided wasn't working. The rooms I was assigned to were dirty (hair and dirt on the bed) and I had to change my room 4 times. Even the last room wasn't clean but I got tired of moving and stayed. Once I managed to get them on the phone, the service was great but the room and organization were really terrible.

I reserved and paid for two rooms at your establishment. One for Friday night for my daughter, and one for Friday and Saturday for me. I am cancelling the Saturday night stay, and I would like a refund for the entire stay. When we returned to the building at 7:00 Friday night, the door from the sidewalk was wide open, as was the door to the building. I closed both doors. I went down to get a pizza 30 minutes later, and both were wide open again. It seems that many people have the code to your property. How often is the code changed? Later that night, I went out in the common area to look out the window to see if the door was closed, and someone was passed out in a chair in the common area on the 2nd floor. How is this allowable? It is NOT safe for people to be wandering in and passing out in the common areas. There was noise all night, finally quieted down around 3:30am. You said quiet after 10pm. It was like being in a college dorm. There were people walking through the building all night trying to get into the rooms. I was very worried about someone trying to get into my daughter's room. This was a terrifying experience, and the building is not secure. It seemed that people were trying to get into rooms on all the floors. The whole situation was very unsecure and dangerous.

They made it seem like you have your own place to yourself. A living room with a dining and your room. IT WAS NOT. We walk up the stairs and its a common living room and mini kitchen with 3 rooms. Walls are paper thin, the bathroom had hairs on them, bed covers had hairs on them. 2 people were watching tv at the living room and we could hear their tv playing, a crying baby, people fighting somewhere. It reeked of marijuana and main doors were all open. It was only the main gate that was locked. Total disaster. We were not comfortable staying in it and left may be 20mins from when we checked in and went and was lucky enough to find a different accommodation at night. Total waste of time and money. Go somewhere else. I even tried calling the contact person but would not pick up and would only respond through sms.

*DO NOT BOOK* Me and my friend wanted a nicer place to stay for new year’s eve while on our road trip. Any of the 60$ motels would have been better. This room is just a singular room in someone’s house. All the marketed kitchen and dining space is not available for use. The walls are incredibly thin and you can hear both the owners and the neighbors who blast music all night. The front door has no lock? the gate beyond it does lock but was always left open by other tenants. The main door doesn’t even have a door handle??? It literally can not be closed. Not to mention we woke up to someone trying to enter our room well before the check out time. We tried to cancel the booking when we first arrived the tenant didn’t let us. It felt impersonal, unsafe, unclean and absolutely not worth the insane 110$ fee. We are seeking a refund and would strongly recommend others to not book this property.
