What a gem!! We stayed for 4 days. Had to readjust our arrival and departure date at last minute due to typhoon Shanshan☹️. They even refunded our last day stay without asking as we had to leave a day earlier due to approaching typhoon.We arrived at midnight by train and the manager met us on site to welcome us and explain everything. Having a washer and dryer in one machine on site saved us! We would do a load of laundry every night and in the morning have clean clothes. Saved a lot of time when we got home as all clothes were clean and we did not have to do multiple loads of laundry. Place was clean, quit yet close to a bus stop and shops. Super responsive by Whatsapp to any request. Daily house cleaning. Would highly recommend. Keep up the good work! Loved your hospitality and your beautiful country😀😀
