"Breakfasts were amazing! Great location, not far from the bus terminal"
Cleanliness could be better Room cleaning and towel change only every three days, but towels were changed upon request

"Efficient, worry-free and simple. Self check-in, self check-out. Always nice to see renters who are still trusting the world. Also, great communication!"
Maybe a hello from the owner would had been nice, but its optional.

"The location sits on main public transit options; Bus stop, METRO station, and one street away a main connecting street offering additional public bus stops & connections. A short walk uphill lands you at a central interception from which all directions of pedestrian pathways are possible to explore the city and sights."
Food shops & markets in the district are regionally expensive. The area for basic cold food storage and microwave reheating of food needs a serious update. For the number of guests the refrigerator is way to small. The small microwave does not fit common delivery food packages, or a standard dinner plate for reheating.

"The staff were very friendly and helpful, it's less than a 10-minute walk to the city center or the central train/bus station, the room was clean/comfortable, the guest kitchen upstairs had a really cool/pretty setup (along with everything you need to cook dinner), and the various common areas on the ground floor (including an outdoor courtyard) were comfortable and inviting. Different artists contributed to the design of each room, so they're all different, which is pretty unique! We stayed for 4 nights and found the space would have been suitable for either a shorter or longer stay."
It was a bit strange at first to be staying in a remodeled prison cell, but it's actually a really good idea for how to repurpose these spaces! There were only two toilets/showers in the women's restroom, which was fine for a stay in early March, but I could imagine there would be lines at a busier time of year. Our room had a round loft bed with ladders on both sides, which might not be suitable for someone with a fear of heights (but other rooms have a different setup).

"The position is great and the room is overall quiet despite the very trafficked road."
I didn't like the messiness of the place. Overall quite chaotic building with construction sites and no comfortable shared space. There is a great rooftop, but is not really used and fully available for guests yet.

"Great location and good value. Very well organized with refrigeration bins and cabinets for kitchen use and extra large storage lockers in the room."
The kitchen facilities are a bit tricky because one kitchen is so small (one person can fit) and the upstairs kitchen has little sitting (except outside if the weather allows).

A little pricey for budget travelers compared to other parts of Europe but that's what you get in Liechtenstein =

"You literally only have to cross a small road and you are right on the beach, less than 100 meters from the Indian Ocean - and just a short walk to Tofo market with all the nice restaurants and bars. Perfect location, not too busy or noisy. Great value for money, friendly staff."

"Our stay at this accommodation was fantastic. The staff was welcoming,always friendly and ready to fulfill our needs. The room was simple, clean,perfect ,the balcony as well, there we were delighted by the beautiful view of the city and mountains. The location was right in the heart of the city, close to all important places, you can almost be everywhere within a couple of minutes by walk. What impressed us was the value for money that this accommodation offers. For just 12.5 € per bed, you get far more than you would expect. This place truly provides a beautiful experience at an affordable price."

"Recently I stayed at The Sparkling Turtle Hostel and I had a wonderful experience. The location, house, and rooms were all very nice, clean, and comfortable. I really enjoyed my stay there. Special thanks to Mr. Ajit, who attended to me during my stay. He is a very humble and kind person and made me feel very welcome. Highly recommended place to stay in Kathmandu.” 😊 Specially Thankyou Mr Ajit Sir for everything..."
Everything is Good 👍

I am not expecting anymore than what I got. convenient location, quiet, comfortable hide out, what more should I expected. hot and cold potable water through out the building there is not anything I did not like.

"Riad is beautiful and is very comfortable with all kinds of amenities. You can easily spend the whole day inside if you wanna take a break from the hustle bustle. I took services like facial massage and full body massage. They were very well delivered. The staff is friendly and helping. Definitely recommend it."
Rooms on the lower floors can be slightly noisy since they’re right in from of the pool but the people were very respectful so didn’t have much trouble.
