Experiencia Jacal
Buenas experiencia, pero falta de coordinación entre la administración y los portales de reserva ... llamar antes para asegurar precios y confirmar reserva...
Sugiero mas limpieza por las noches en los servicios higiénicos ya que son compartidos.

平價可接受的住宿
熱水很足但是房間較小，老闆老闆娘很熱情但是英文不太通。早餐很簡單且份量少，含一份小小的炒蛋。Wifi速度不快，房間隔音普普。要注意浴室廁所是共用的，髒亂程度不一定。我離開前有寄放行李，要求洗澡需要收費5索爾。
