Reviews
Feifei from China (9/10)
The surrounding is busy but quiet,it's very convenient to shop and tour since it's near the center of the city and 3-5MINS to the train station. There are a lot of shops and restaurants which are usually popular and with reasonable price. The owner of the house replys our questions effectively and patiently. The room is clean and big enough to hold 5-6 people.
However there is no lift and the room is on 4th floor,which should be aware of by the people who are carrying large and heavy luagge.Tony from France (8/10)
