  • Vanishar from Malaysia (9/10)

    It was an amazing place, very close to the train station which genuinely helps after a long day of walking around. The room was clean, well organised, and had all the basic necessities.

    The room was very spacious and we could comfortably fit 5 suitcases (which in most places usually isn't the case).

    The owner was really kind and understanding!
