A comfortable 18m room with balcony

I’ll be honest – when I first saw the listing for A comfortable 18m room with balcony, I wasn’t expecting much from what seemed like a pretty standard 3-star spot. But you know what? Sometimes the simple places surprise you, and this one actually grew on me during my stay.

The room itself is exactly what it says on the tin – 18 square meters, which sounds tiny but honestly feels more spacious than you’d think. The layout’s smart, with everything positioned so you’re not constantly bumping into furniture (I mean, we’ve all been in those cramped hotel rooms where you can barely open your suitcase, right?). What really sold me though was that balcony. It’s not huge – just big enough for a small table and chair – but having that little outdoor space made such a difference, especially in the mornings when I’d grab my coffee and just… breathe. The view isn’t going to win any awards, but there’s something nice about watching the neighborhood wake up below.

The whole place has this unpretentious, lived-in feel that I actually preferred to some of the flashier hotels I’ve stayed at. Sure, the furnishings aren’t cutting-edge and the bathroom’s on the smaller side, but everything works well and feels clean. The staff were genuinely helpful – not in that overly scripted way, but like they actually cared about making sure I was comfortable. Check-in was smooth, and when I had a question about local restaurants, the front desk guy gave me recommendations that were clearly his personal favorites, not just tourist traps. The 7.8 rating makes sense to me because it delivers on what it promises without trying to be something it’s not. If you’re looking for a straightforward, comfortable base without paying premium prices, this place does the job well. Just don’t expect luxury amenities or Instagram-worthy interiors – but honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you want.
