The room's exactly like the pictures with a mind-blowingly nice layout. The sheets were super clean, and they even replaced them once during my stay. I was jaw-droppingly surprised by the abundance of towels in the hallway. The location is a short 3-minute walk from the station's exit 3/4, making it super convenient. I was able to check in a bit early, and although some of the staff were a bit short, they were still polite. The guesthouse exceeded my expectations with its easy airport access and the filling breakfast that left me satisfied. The restrooms had really good shampoo and soap. The kitchen area was great, with an electric kettle and cookware/ kitchen utensils available. The shared kitchen on the 3rd floor and 1st floor was super convenient, and I loved that they provided free small breakfast from 8 am to 11 am. The lounge was free to use, although I didn't get the chance during my stay. The room was clean and had a flat-screen TV. The security measures, including the locked front door after 8 pm and the code access, made me feel safe throughout my stay. The air conditioning was a relief, and the luggage storage was convenient. this guesthouse provided a super pleasant and enjoyable experience with its impressive facilities and convenient amenities. No pets allowed and no smoking on site.

The location was great, close to the subway station and conveniently located in the center. The free breakfast was a nice touch and the shared kitchens were well-equipped. The option to use the laundry machine and dryer for a small fee was very convenient for longer travels.
The price was a bit high for a hostel. there was a shortage of bathrooms in the female shared section, which sometimes caused inconvenience.

The facilities at this guesthouse were fantastic! the bed in the super single dorm was extra comfy, perfect for a light sleeper like me. They had all the amenities you could need, including a simple breakfast, lockers, towels, and even slippers. the showers were well-stocked with toiletries and there were plenty of toilets available. the staff were really helpful, despite looking serious, and the location was convenient and quiet.
I felt completely at home at this guesthouse, with no complaints at all.

The location of the guesthouse was perfect for exploring the city. It was conveniently close to a subway station and there were plenty of shops and restaurants in the area. I loved being able to stroll around the streets and find delicious food and interesting things to buy. Additionally, the staff at the guesthouse were friendly and accommodating, always willing to help with any questions or requests.
One major downside was the cleanliness of the guesthouse. The cleaning staff also seemed to be in a rush, as they were noisy and not very thorough in their cleaning.
