Comfortable.
Pros:

Hotel was comfortable with the rooms providing good space to house two large suitcases.

Cons:

Was further away from any facilities and train station than expected. Was required to pay for tourist taxes upon arrival after having already paid fully online via booking.com - this was totally unexpected and not budgeted for.

Muito boa.
Pros:

Ótima localização, funcionarios muito prestativos e queridos para ajudar, quarto grande e confortável, e tem tudo necessário para uma pequena estadia.

Cons:

Os itens de higiene ficam na recepção para o hospede pegar caso precise. Ninguem lembra de fazer isso na chegada, quando está com varias malas, lembram depois quando precisam de um algodão e não tem no quarto. Poderia disponibilizar no quarto.

樓下是鬧區但房間很安靜，乾淨方便不太會被打擾，除了床跟枕頭稍微偏硬(個人喜好)跟樓下比較會有喝完酒的人之外，其他都滿好的，插座足夠、設備都滿全的。
Pros:

位置在觀光區但不吵，房間比照片看起來還乾淨，本以為會舊舊的。

Cons:

WiFi很慢，要看影片要先下載才能順利看完。每天打包垃圾後，沒有提供垃圾袋，索性拿購物的袋子當垃圾袋。
