Homestay佢係大既有地方比你晾衫, 位置亦就近市中心 價錢配合返質素既係

多人房晚上會極度熱, 好在有風扇長吹先會瞓得到

1.0

Nothing at all. Horrible

⚠️‼️‼️ I checked in to this hostel, upon arrival it was just fine. THE GUY, IDK IF HE IS THE OWNER OR JUST A CARE TAKE CARE BUT HE DID ME SO BAD. IT WAS A WHOLE NIGHTMARE DURING MY ENTIRE LIFE. I WAS SITTING OUTSIDE THE BALCONY ENJOYING MY MEAL AND HE SAT BESIDE ME. FIRST HE SWITCHED THE LIGHT TO DEEM, I SHARED MY SNACK BUT HE WAS UP TO SOMETHING. HE GRAB ME, HARASSED ME FORCEFULLY. HE COULD BE A POTENTIAL RAPIST. THIS WAS SO BAD THAT I HAD TO CHECK OUT AT 10PM AND FIND A PLACE TO STAY UNTIL PASS 11PM. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. THIS IS HORRIBLE. THE 2 COUPLES ALSO PACKED THEIR THINGS AND LEFT THE PLACE BECAUSE OF HOW AWFUL MY SITUATION WAS AND COULD BE THEIRS TOO IF THEY WILL STAY.
