Hostel type room. Although our stay here was without any serious misadventure (were were mother and daughter, quiet and respectful of the accommodation), there were a few things I found concerning. Check in: I was asked for my passport. As an U.S. Citizen we know we don't just hand over our passport except for an occasional copy required by some hotels. This being said I was asked to LEAVE it with the owner. I argued and my daughter left her ID. I was woken up at 11:30 that night with a request for the booking person's ID. I left my passport card not my book passport with the owner. Breakfast never arrived or was offered. Tried to use shuttle both to and from the airport but it apparently didn't exist or was an inconvenient day. Tried to contact them from the U.S. at the appropriate business hour, they never answered the phone. Tried to text, same thing. Train was close by but was late, never arrived or closed for construction (not the owner's fault obviously). At check out an inspection of the room was required by the owner before she would give me back my ID. Garbage was emptied once, I did it myself the rest of my stay. Towels were only exchanged once. The best description of how I felt during the time I spent at this location (7 days) is as someone who would run off without paying (I prepaid my entire stay), or someone who would somehow damage their property. Plus: Heater, tea, coffee, sugar, cups, kettle and refrigerator.
