Terrible customer service from owner's mother
At check-in, I was not informed shower is only open from 6PM - 11PM and 6AM - 10AM. So, I woke up late next morning and took a shower at 11AM. The next day, I did the same at around 10AM. There was a cleaning lady and I asked if I can take a shower. Then, out of no where an older lady rush in and scream at me in my face and she check everything and shoo me away. The Host later explained to me that is her mother and the mother was angry because she has to clean up after my late shower the day before. I did not understand the policy since it was not explained to me. The mother did not apology. I was not happy with the customer service. The host, however, is very apologetic and agree to refund my 1 night stay because I cancel my reservation after the incident. There is also a curfew at 10PM the front door will lock so you need to be back in the building at 10PM
깨끗한 편이었음.
방음이 전혀 안되었습니다.
10시30분까지 펜션들어가야하는게 부담이었습니다.
주위환경은 조용하고 깨끗했습니다.

War alles soweit gut, nur war es blöd, dass man nur von 18 bis 22 Uhr duschen kann. Dazu kommt noch, dass es für alle nur ein bad gibt, dafür getrennt für Männer und Frauen. Auch die Toilette musste auf jeder Etage mit den anderen Zimmern geteilt werden. Dafür war aber immer überall alles sauber.
Am Ende bekam meine Frau sogar ein kleines Abschiedsgeschenk. Das Personal 2 ältere Damen waren immer nett und hilfsbereit.
