Cons:

Leider gab es Kakerlaken im Bad und im Zimmer, Check in verlief sehr schwierig, wartete 1 Stunde auf die Besitzer und bekam keine Antwort. Unter der Woche war eine sehr laute Feier auf der Terrasse, welche bis spät in die Nacht ging

Pros:

Comfy beds

Cons:

Staff had no idea. Was Rudely woken at 1am and told I had to change room as they had put me in the wrong room.

Really hard to open the exterior door to get back into the property after hours. I actually couldn’t open it and was locked outside for ages

Great rooftop retreat!
Pros:

The room was great, even with the shared bathroom, the apartment was clean and big, and I'm only sorry that the weather was too bad for me to take proper advantage of the rooftop courtyard. I think it was a record heatwave, and the aircon made a valiant effort to keep me alive.

Cons:

The shared bathroom is probably a sticking point for a lot of people, I found it clean, and there was only one occasion when I had to wait to use the facilities.
The only big problem I had was that the tap water tasted very bad in my room. There was a drinking water spigot, but either the city water is bad or the filter is desperately in need of changing, I had to go and buy water (not good in the heat wave!!)

Decent value for a good bed, but no wifi and a leaky AC unit
Pros:

Comfy bed and spacious room. Didn’t have any trouble with noise and stayed there on a Saturday (granted they didn’t rent out the top part any time I was there)

Cons:

Wifi didn’t work in my room, and the AC unit leaked water onto my head while I slept. TV didn’t work either

Good for the purpose of our trip and near by to the places we wanted to visit. It’s ok if you are not too picky or snob!
Pros:

We had a very nice large room in a very good location and even though it was part of a Hotel (bar/events venue in Australia) it was quiet and quite enjoyable

Cons:

1. For some reason cockroaches find the way in a couple of times. The bed was clean but a bit soft for my taste. We shared toilets and bathrooms and, they were ok but the base tiles of them needs to be better clean. Also people have to be pointed on how to use better the bathroom so. it doesn’t become too wet for the next person to use. (Mats available in the shower rooms and not necessary in the rooms).
