4/10 Fair

We had a room on the 3rd floor, yet we could still hear the street noise very loudly as windows were very thin. Breakfast was poor as we are vegan.

8/10 Very good

Experiencia Jacal
Buenas experiencia, pero falta de coordinación entre la administración y los portales de reserva ... llamar antes para asegurar precios y confirmar reserva... Sugiero mas limpieza por las noches en los servicios higiénicos ya que son compartidos.

6/10 Good

平價可接受的住宿
熱水很足但是房間較小,老闆老闆娘很熱情但是英文不太通。早餐很簡單且份量少,含一份小小的炒蛋。Wifi速度不快,房間隔音普普。要注意浴室廁所是共用的,髒亂程度不一定。我離開前有寄放行李,要求洗澡需要收費5索爾。
