[New] Backlane Elegance 5pax Near Jonker 800m

Nothing!

The worst experience ever. The location is at the back of a shop lot dark, quiet, and feels unsafe. We had to constantly monitor the CCTV and be very aware of our surroundings. The narrow alley is dimly lit, with stray dogs around, and cars speed through using it as a shortcut without caring for pedestrians, even those with luggage. It’s definitely not a convenient or safe place for families, especially with young children or elderly members. The check-in process was extremely poor. Even though we were already standing right in front of the correct door, the staff gave us the wrong instructions, causing us to walk around the entire building unnecessarily. When we called for clarification, they only confused us more by giving incorrect information again. On top of that, the cleaner was very rude. We had already informed them that we were packing and about to check out, yet she kept knocking, ringing the doorbell repeatedly, and speaking to us disrespectfully. This was truly the worst stay I’ve ever experienced. I’ve travelled widely and stayed at many Airbnb properties, but nothing has ever been this bad. I will never return to this place again completely banned from my life and my whole family’s.

Small but cozy enough Place is unique and all the furniture are just nice…….. only had a bit of problem turning on electricity

Place looks very nice and is generally clean and safe. Check in was very clear and easy. The location is in good walking distance to historic downtown although you need to cross a lot of traffic to get there.

It would be great to have a water filter installed to refill potable water. The bathroom needs a proper cleaning (lots of dust behind and above the door, floor felt sticky). There was mould or at least a water damage on the bedroom wall to the bathroom that has to be taken care of. The sheets in the bedroom had very obvious stains of food or drinks, so we had to swap them with those of the other room.

My family and I enjoyed our short stay very much. The place is cute, and the owner uses every space effectively. Even though it is small, it has everything, and it is practically arranged. We love the fact that everyone can be connected inside the house. Instructions upon check-in were also clear, and the prompt reply by the host made everything go well and resulted in a good stay we had. We would love to come again in the future. Tq

The outdoor kitchen could be made cleaner, as some dried leaves and sand were on the floor when we went in. We had to sweep the floor to tidy the floor a bit. This is because it is an open space.

Bed is comfortable and the lazy chair also nice. Water power is nice.
