Je n'avais pas vu que le dortoir est sans fenêtre. Cela me gêne toujours lorsque cela arrive.

음... 혼자 여행이기에 늘 도미토리를 이용했었는데 이번만큼 별로인 적은 없었습니다. 1. 건물 3층에 위치하여 짐들고 올라가기 어려움 2. 문이 늘 잠겨 있어 첫날 밤늦게 도착했을 때 전화로 문 열어달라고 함(로밍 또는 말레이시아 usim 아니면 곤란한 상황 발생, 벨을 눌러도 대답없음) 3. 샤워실 및 화장실에서 냄새가 남 4. 여성도미토리 예약했는데 남자도 같은 방 사용 이러한 불편함으로 5박 예약했는데 3일만에 그냥 다른호텔로 옮김

大推薦！

非常讚！ 唯一小小缺點是沒有電梯，以及公共空間沒有冷氣。 但是瑕不掩瑜，很對得起這個價錢了！服務跟早餐比我朋友住的星級酒店還好

Cozy little spot in the middle of the city

It was kinda tough to figure out where the place was given the small sign and hardly noticeable numbers due to the color choice. But after going up about 4 flights of stairs, comes this cozy little spot in the heart of the city. Air conditioner works fine and the food offered was alright. Just don't forget to bring your own shampoo/soap and towel!
