Rekommenderas inte!
Vid check-in var ytterdörren låst och vi fick vänta en timme. Till slut bankade vi hårt på dörren och då vaknade någon innanför och släppte in oss. Ofräscht med massor av hårstrån i sängen och trasig toalettdörr. Absolut inte värt pengarna.

店主人很好，是台湾人，不过他说他不是老板。两人间的房间比想象中大。虽然是公共浴室和卫生间，但是却没有降低卫生标准。非常舒适
