Cozrum Homes - Retro House

Rooms: My room was 101 on the first floor. It has a double bed. It has a large, semi-private outdoor patio which is good for having morning coffee, evening drinks and for drying towels and laundry. All the rooms face the small street. Street noise at night is minimal but by 5:15am you'll be awoken by the roosters, local bird population, and morning traffic. Don't leave food around because ants will find it. Service: There is no on-site staff except for the maid that's on-site daily from about 10am to 4pm. If you have issues you have to connect via social media and they are fairly prompt to respond. Cleanliness is an issue because the white bedding/towels are never refreshed during your stay, and they use a household washing machine to clean them between bookings. You can still see old stains because they should be professionally laundered. Bottles water is not provided, however there is a purified? water machine in the lobby and they provide an empty flask for filling. Location: If you like Chinatown this is a good location. There are few foreigners around so you'll get many looks/interactions from the friendly locals. There are many local restaurants nearby, but not much shopping. The nearest good convenience store is only a 2 min walk. Security/Check-In: Check-in is 2pm and you'll be sent a procedure via social media only after you message them on arrival. Don't expect the information to be automatically sent to you at 2pm. My issue with security was that the key card was very difficult to use to open my room. It was an easy tap to enter the building, but the room entry was not easy and took several attempts every time to finally gain access.
