Well-equipped shared kitchen
The presence of the common kitchen made the guests' stay more pleasant, since it was spotlessly clean and the additional facilities were all functional. There was a stove and a refrigerator which the guests loved because they could cook their own meals and store it for further consumption.
positive:
Stable and fast Internet connection
One of the usual problems that can be encountered by travellers is the instability of the Wi-Fi. Thankfully, most guests did not have major problems with the Internet at this guest house. They were able to send emails and contact people from the other side of the globe efficiently.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Bathrooms are small
Some guests commented that the bathrooms are small and seem cramped. However, the bathrooms are so clean and have all the amenities needed by the guests for decent baths. Moreover, guests also added that the hot & cold water supply was stable too.
negative:
Thin walls allow noise to easily enter
A few guests complained that the noise was troublesome! The walls were thin so they could hear chatter from the adjacent rooms sometimes. The staff was alert in responding to these situations by reprimanding the other guests in a nice way, though.
negative:
Basic Italian breakfast
There was nothing special with the breakfast's taste according to some guests. The pastries were satisfactory though, but the gourmet meals were unsatisfactory. However, guests were given restaurant vouchers for free sometimes, which can be used at nearby eating spots.
