The room was big. It had a fridge for my use.
The bathroom heater did not work and my request to fix it was ignored. It was quite annoying. I don't recommend it..

convenient stay near transport

easy accessbig roomuseful bus stop
access was easy and the room was big i liked that it had chairs and a table. the bus stop right outside was very useful i used it to get to the airport in just ten minutes. frequent buses went into the town centre too this was very convenient.
the owner provided some confusing instructions for entry. the same code opened multiple lock boxes and rooms. as a result i found myself in the wrong room initially.

convenient and clean stay

the bus stop near the building was very useful. the bus from the airport goes directly to this place. i found the family room quite spacious with four beds, meeting our needs well. the location was excellent, providing easy access to the town centre.
the owner gave very confusing instructions for entry. i think providing clear room numbers in the entry instructions would be helpful. the same code was used for multiple lock boxes, causing initial confusion.

this guest house welcomed me after a long journey. the host put much thought into the modern bathroomwith ample space. catching buses into the city was easy (i appreciated the regular service).
