Do not stay!

Place was very small, area was rough, smelly and dirty. The room was no bigger than a small bathroom with sunken mattresses, yellow pillows and exposed piping inside the room for the air con. We had to leave to find another more suitable place that was as described and this place refused our refund when we requested it.

You get what you pay for, it was pretty clean and everything worked properly. A little confusing to find. However we had a good time, we wanted to explore the city and this was a cheap place to stay. Would stay here again

I stayed here with my husband and 3 children. The reviews of location made me concerned- it is located up a narrow alley that is covered with graffiti and bins. It took some time to accurately find, the management were very responsive in helping. Turns out the location was fantastic- walking distance of vintage shops. Fruit market, multiple restaurants in Chinatown. We felt completely safe. The locks were secure and brand new (see other reviews) . The hearing was not working, we were dependent on a space heater that the management dropped over. Would highly recommend based on the location!!!!! Just around the corner, Jimmys coffee has the best coffee and croissants that I have had in a long time! Attached are photos of the area

Wish there was more than 1 facecloth and 1 hand towel for 2 people. Windows in 1 bedroom didn't fully close, but close enough. Wish the bathroom was a bit bigger. But overall great value choice in a fun neighborhood. Would stay again.

Complete scam

We got called multiple times throughout the day to submit ID, security deposit and pre-payment via a portal. We got to the apartment and the keypad for the unit had been removed and replaced with a manual lock by the landlord (the property manager claimed this happened sometime between when they called that afternoon for payment and when we arrived), so we weren’t able to access the apartment at all. There were occupancy notices plastered all over the building. This place is a complete scam, they were clearly subleasing illegally and got caught. If you have a reservation, make one elsewhere.

To be honest way better than the review said. However, not 5 star cleanliness but still fine. Also, small kind of sketchy street to get there. But still safe. Perfect for lower budget.

Property was a great size. Cozy beds. However you could not adjust the temp and it was set at 15°C mid November. There was a space heater but it didn’t heat enough for the size of the unit. We all slept with sweaters on

Left stranded.

This place gave me no advance warning that they intended to cancel my booking until I was on site at 8:30 PM the day of. I was stranded out side in the freezing cold and had to find a last minute booking that resulted in paying exorbitant rates somewhere else. Hotels.com was a nightmare to work with but did decide to comp the stay, however I have only been refunded about 2/3 of the total cost.
