Negative Reviews
negative:
Double rooms have shared bathroom
The two double rooms have a shared bathroom, which many guests deem a bit uncomfortable to use. However, the bathroom is spotlessly clean and excellent toiletries are provided so you can still look forward to refreshing baths.
negative:
Ineffective transportation pick-up service
Some guests were a bit disappointed because they were supposed to be picked up at the train station for free, but nothing arrived. The management sincerely apologised though, and explained that they only have one car. Thus, it is better if you call in advance to see if the vehicle is working or not.
negative:
Various noise may cause inconvenience
The toilets can sometimes become too loud when flushed probably due to faulty plumbing, according to some guests. Furthermore, the walls are not that thick, so you might hear people talking and walking at the nearby rooms.
