Not as expected
Appreciated this was a cheaper hotel and you get what you pay for but was overall surprised at the condition. The walls were wooden panels which aesthetically pleasing but with gaps to the outside this made it near impossible to cool the room especially with such a poor air con unit. There was also very few places to store belongings with only a clothes rack and a couple hangers. If you have suitcases prepare to carry them up numerous stairs. If you are a backpacker this is probably a better place but it wasn’t for us. We moved hotels after the first night.
A beautiful restored shophouse. Very welcoming staff and very clean common areas. The rooms can get a bit warm in the afternoon as part of the roof is covered in zinc and conducts heat directly into the room. Bed is located in the attic which can be a slight inconvenience but it adds to the overall charm of the place. Toilets are small and poky but still good enough for me. For the price, I would still recommend this place for those seeking something out of the ordinary.
