I booked 3 double rooms through Booking.com for 3 adults and 3 children. The photos on Booking.com looked much better th
Pros:

The only positive thing was the location. Unfortunately, everything else was disappointing and did not match the photos or description on Booking.com.

Cons:

We booked this property for 3 adults and 3 children expecting an en-suite studio as shown in the listing. The photos were very misleading. The room was much smaller, poorly maintained, and not what we paid for. The host kept asking for extra money after we arrived, which felt unfair and misleading. I felt like they were trying to take as much money as possible from guests. I would not recommend this property to families. Please be careful before booking and read all reviews first.

Affordable and perfect for one night stay
Pros:

Staff at the front desk super lovely/ friendly and accommodating. Room was well decorated and cozy

Cons:

only downside I could think of was that the rooms aren’t soundproof, can hear nearby conversations and keys turning but I didn’t mind this. Something to keep in mind for those who would have a problem with this
