Tamela, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

For the price point of the property you have to go in with certain expectations, I had these expectations altered during my stay, the room was clean, the bed was comfy and the host was very kind and helpful. I specifically stayed in the Double Room with King Bed and ensuite and cant fault anything.

Catherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Aside from a gross shower curtain, the place was clean and staff were friendly. The room was pretty spacious, although the bed was a little uncomfortable. Overall, the price was right and the location was great!
Elizabeth, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

First property I have seen where bathroom / restroom is separate from the room. It's a hostel not a hotel.

Bedbugs!!! Stay away!!! We told the manager and didn‘t even got an answer!!! We searched on google and found a comment about bedbugs from 4 months prior! So they obviously didn’t do anything about it!

1-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent place to stay for a night or two. Great price. Great location with bus stops near by and walking distance from the train station. Easy check in and check out. It’s slightly annoying you have to walk through a corridor to get to the toilet/bathroom & the facilities could be cleaner.
Alessandra, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Decent

A more than adequate property, clean and comfortable enough
FYNE PAINTING, 2-night trip

Good.
sharon, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Different

A strange experience. On arrival being given 4 separate keys and being told very clearly that check out was 11am at the very latest! My first experience of having the toilet and shower in a separate room, not ideal when needing the loo in the night trying to work out which key was needed for each room.
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff at Sakura guest house did a great job of providing for me. The room was large and comfortable. The bathroom was in a different room off the hallway but was private, for my use only. Great value; I would stay here again.
