Terrible
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

It was a terrifying night. When we arrive, entrance is wide open and random guy just walked out the building. The key card is in the envelope on the table. When we walk into the room, there is a guy sleeping on our bed! Called the building manager, he said just grab another key card and try another room. When to the other room, found out someone just showered in the room and towels are on the floor. Called the manager and told us to try another room. At this point we realised how unsafe this place is. Everyone can access the building, they can just grab the key on the table and sleep in whatever room they want. No one is on site to manage the place. We were staying a night with fear and had to block the room with a fridge. The place is expensive for what it is. We stayed there as we thought the building is beautiful, but have regretted every minute during the night and I really think I deserved a refund. DON’T BOOK AT THIS PLACE!

Pros:

The house and building were lovely looking

Cons:

No staff on site- tricky checking in, main door open and strangers wondering around the building- even overnight can hear them, laundry tricky to access and limited access, kitchen a shared space and not near rooms-

Good for a few nights, not recommended for long stays
