Cons:

השירותים והמקלחת לא בחדר, חדר קטנציק ועם מדרגות צרות לעלות לחדר, נמצא באמצע שום מקום ויש עוד מקום שנקרא באותו שם שקצת רחוק ממנו אז אם התבלבלנו בהתחלה, מתאים רק ללילה אחד וגם זה לא הייתי ממליצה.

Pros:

The single room was alright

Cons:

Solo space at the price of a dorm bed
Pros:

I read reviews saying the homestay was in a "sketchy alley," but when I saw it for myself, the alley in question was just a normal neighbourhood with decent houses/apartments.

I work remotely, so good wifi is at the top of my list, but I was able to work and have meetings without issues.

The attic was spacious enough to stretch out and lay flat luggage and big bags. It also had a view of the planes landing and taking off.

The place was clean. I'm scared of cockroaches -- good thing I didn't see any.

They provide free drinking water. 🙌

Cons:

The main door's passcode lock sometimes acts up; it should be checked.
One of the showers' knob needs to be fixed. Difficult to turn on and off when hands are wet/slippery. Other than these two, everything is fine.

A terrible experience for an international traveler
Pros:

Location because it is located close to the airport

Cons:

1. The bathroom is too cramped with the toilet. Toilet bowl should be located away from father's shower area

2. There should be jugs in the room for guest to drink tea/coffee

3. Staff were friendly but language barrier was a challenge for me. Nothing I said in English was understood.....and I ended up paying more than what I was supposed to pay.

4. I was overcharged to pay for 2 days when I stayed for less than 18 hrs.

5. There should be flexibility with the chcek- in and xheck out timing

Pros:

Simple, no-fuss and clean. Good for a quick stay from the airport. I was helped with my baggage as I had a bit of trouble. The check in also went smoothly and was given all the info I neededed which I appreciate.

Cons:

The stairs going up to the room was really tiny so it's not possible to bring up a large luggage. Other than that, the room was okay.
