Easy to find according to the address given. Few parking slots are available in front or near the location. Friendly owner for guidance and clean room provided as expected. Air conditioner and TV works well. Good connection of wifi and tv with youtube available can let me search for any Chinese programme that I usually watch. Enjoy a night stay in JSW INN.

The room is spacious, with private bathroom, the facilities are basic but everything just nice: all you need are there. Breads provided in the pantry are nice, we love the coffee flavour one. It is quite self-service based but everything is easy to use, staff also very responsive through WhatsApp. Location is great, walkable to the center. Very quiet at night. Very recommend to young people and friends (but might not be suitable for family with kids).

Great location, and nice, cozy house. The front door patio looks out into a lovely building. The host is super friendly too, I ran into him a few times and he was always really nice! Very peaceful, I could sit in the courtyard in the mornings eating the provided bread and cookies and planning my day.
