"숙소 위치가 너무 좋습니다. 프랑스 조계지 중심에 있어서 근처에 예쁜 카페, 식당들도 많고 큰 쇼핑센터도 있어서 걸어서 다니기 좋아요. 그리고 숙소 인테리어가 너무 좋습니다. 3충 발코니에 앉아서 맥주 한잔하기도 너무 좋고요. 단지 욕실이 좀 작다는 점은 감안하셔야 할 듯 합니다. 전반적으로 너무 좋은 숙소 였습니다."

"O chuveiro saia pouquíssima água, e também a água ficava muito quente ou muito fria, impossibilitando de tomar um bom banho. O café da manhã é bom, porém o espaço para os hóspedes é muito pequeno. De restante foi tudo ok. Os funcionários não são simpáticos nem mal educados, são neutros. Não falam inglês. "
