Not worth the money and stinks as well as mould everywhere
Nothing
Everything was mouldy. You could smell the mould just looked a mess as soon as you walked in the front door.

残念
テレビのチャンネルを変えたら、画面が真っ暗になり、声だけで画面は映らない。 浴室の扉の隙間からシャワーのお湯が部屋の中に流れてしまった。

Very good
It is a Hostel and not a Hotel. So, we should expect the facilities as per hostel and not compare with a hotel. It has not promised breakfast but you have the liberty to prepare your breakfast as per your taste. In the shared bathrooms, they have provide the best quality hair wash and body wash lotions and the best bath soap. They keep proper stock of towels, the tooth brushes and toothpaste tubes ready for the use of guests. The kitchen is well equipped with a Rice Cooker, Micro oven, coffee machine and much more.
It is better they could mention about Subway Station and also the Airport Limousine Bus stops a bit more clearly. On the first day of arrival we had a bit diffulties in finding the location.

The rooms need a good repairing, take new pictures of the rooms as they don't meet the expectations.
Price
Checking in was quite long as the staff didn't know what room I booked, first of all the gave me the room without a faucet so the pipe was just sticking out of the wall. Mold was everywhere because of the bathroom inside the room. It was dirty in the kitchen and everything was very messy. The ventilation wasn't working as it was spring though it was very humid inside and outside. The fan in the room was dusty. Even though I came in the room only to sleep and to take a shower it was still supposed to be clean and repaired. And it was really difficult to contact with staff as there was no one at the reception desk almost all of the time. The pictures don't meet the expectations.

If you can, go to other hotel
Silent during night and cheap. Sotres and metro close to hotel
Very very dirty, A/C is automatic and you can’t turn it on or off, so maybe at 03:00 AM it statrts to work at maximum power, you don’t know when it starts or stop. I got a cold for sleeping in that hotel.

Bad
A bit disappointed with the service. they didn’t told us in advance about the room problem. when we arrive, suddenly they ask us to go to other place by walking of 10min with our stuff and so tired that day. The other place they ask us to stay was not that bad but the room has so many dust that make my nose itching the whole night. i hope the room can be deep clean. Also to refill the shower stuff. When we were there the shampoo and body soap was finish.

it’s nice and recommended for short-trip travelers!
location is near an mrt station, surrounded by delicious local restaurants. the facilities are perfect too; there are fridge, washing machine, dryer, kitchen, vending machine, clothes iron and others.
no elevator. the restroom in the room is too small.
