慶爾喜旅館長沙館Cheers Loft Self Check-in Hotel

It is close to the main train station, you have to get a bus though.

There is no staff so if you need to ask for advice or anything better go somewhere else. The entrance may be a bit hidden if you’re not aware. The walls were thin, you could hear everything from everyone

The location was definitely the biggest advantage. I arrived at night and could check in easily using the machine outside. The machine took both cash and cards. The street the hotel is on is very quiet. The room was really basic, but clean where it counted (the bed, mattress etc). There was a small desk where I could put my backpack (I don't think there was enough room for a bigger suitcase though). The bathroom was cleaned regularly and had the basic things like body soap. During my stay there was a problem with water leaking from the ceiling in the hallway after a typhoon, but someone came to have a look at it the same day. My tiny room had its own air-conditioner panel so I could control the temperature. At night the guests were considerate of each other re noise level.

It was just too basic - the room could do with stuff like a mirror and a stool instead of the useless TV. The walls are so thin you won't be watching anything without bothering your neighbors. I could hear people next door very easily, fortunately it was mostly in the morning. The bathroom could do with some updates, in one of the shower rooms the shower head holder was broken. Also, despite having "accessible toilet" the hotel is absolutely not accessible at all - there are steps leading to the restroom/shower area and so on. The air-con controlling panel worked, but had broken buttons and I was a bit scared to use it at first. I wish the curtain in the room was cleaner and also there wasn't a way to open it without giving up on privacy.

Great location. Cool windows in room

Not one mirror in the entire room. Even above the sink. You need to take care of that problem.

Location

2nd floor showers need to be renovated. They have put a cord shower hanging besides the sink/toilet seat. They have space to do a proper bathroom and not a tap on the wall. Water would go everywhere, including outside of the doors. The bedroom doors are not soundproof as the walls. You can hear everything from the room next door or when someone is passing on the corridor. The doors also has a 3 fingers gap at the bottom, which get very loud from outside.
