Guest reported a strong odor of bad drains in the bathroom, indicating a potential sanitation or plumbing issue. The thin walls also compromised privacy and contributed to a disruptive environment.
Guest reported difficulty navigating luggage on cobblestone paths and narrow passages within the property grounds, which could pose a tripping hazard, especially in low-light conditions.

The room felt claustrophobic with only one small, high window, making it very dark. The layout and lack of common space made it hard to relax.
The hotel's confirmation email came from an unmonitored address, which made it impossible to cancel my booking when my plans changed. This lack of reliable communication could be a serious problem in an emergency.
The property has steep steps and no chairs, with beds on the floor. It was very challenging for me to get up at night, so I had to cut my stay short.
Guest reported difficulty operating the gate keypad during heavy rain, compounded by limited English support from emergency contacts. Clear instructions at the gate could enhance safety and accessibility.
Guest noted that table tops required cleaning due to dust accumulation, though floors and toilets were maintained well.
