Bien placé, juste à côté d'un arrêt de bus. Facile d'y accéder en suivant bien les indications reçues par message. Lit confortable.

Chambre donnant sur route plutôt bruyante avec de nombreuses voitures passant devant. Toilettes et douche à l'extérieur de la chambre 6 partagées avec une autre chambre. Les gens de la chambre d'à côté ont été très bruyants.

No staff- no one was there to check in! Never saw a staff member the entire time.

Not the cleanest.

"Nice stay in Alexander Guest House"

8.0

Self check-in was very convenient, and communication with the staff was good – I received a message with all the necessary details before arrival. The guest house offers free Wi-Fi, and the room was equipped with tea-making facilities, a hair dryer, and basic toiletries such as shampoo and shower gel. We brought our own socket adapter, but one of the sockets also had USB ports, so it was easy to charge our phones without an adapter. Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos of the room. Although it was quite small, it was well arranged and had everything we needed, including a chair, a wardrobe for coats, and a large double bed. The room was clean and comfortable. Fresh bed linen and towels were provided. The private bathroom was located outside the room (which of course was mentioned on booking site) but was lockable and for our exclusive use. Overall, it's an ideal place for an overnight stay or a short city break.

The doors are not very soundproof, so you can hear noise from the corridor and neighbouring room. However, it wasn't particularly disturbing during my stay.

Konumu güzeldi, merkeze tek otobüsle rahatça ulaşabildik. Yatak oldukça rahattı. Hijyene biraz daha dikkat edilebilir, ama genel olarak güzel bri deneyimdi.
