“It was amazing the hosts were awesome”
I liked the downstairs room, easily accessible as i had a sciatic nerve pain limiting my mobility. Also not disturbing other guests

“Very bad experience.”
The room and bathroom were not clean at all. The fan was very dirty. We had to buy detergent and clean the toilet and shower . There were no covers on the bathtub and sink drain holes, and there were cockroaches in the room. We also woke up very itchy and suspect there may have been bed bugs, although I cannot confirm this. In addition, the lady who served breakfast on was very rude. She told us that if we did not eat at that time , she would not prepare breakfast again. This was unprofessional and made us feel very uncomfortable. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience and far below the standard one would expect.
