I had opportunity to
try for homestay when attended my friend’s wedding in early of December 2015.
My friend had booked this homestay for us. The homestay is beside of Taska or
kindergarten so I can hear the kids sang Christmas song in the morning.
Owner only give a pair
of keys so keep it properly. The speed of automatic gate close is so slow after pressing the button. When close the gate needs to wait for the gate completely close to ensure
the gate did not reverse.
The living room is big
and furnished with sofa, television, table and many more. In the living room has air-conditioner.
Beside of living room
has a dining table. Near with dining table has a rack which WiFi modem at
there. The password is stick on the modem. I did not have time to try for its
WiFi so I not sure the WiFi is strong or not but most probably I think the WiFi
should be ok.
The homestay feature a
full kitchen with gas stove, full-sized refrigerator, microwave oven, toaster,
and others kitchenware. The supermarket is just across the road and you can buy
ingredients at there.
Beside dining table
near with living room, it also has another dining table which near with
kitchen, refrigerator, utensils (spoon, plate etc) and oven.
One of the main features
is the backyard patio/garden which is suitable for family BBQ or tea time. The
backyard is so nice with mushroom design furniture. The time I went, the grass
was longer.
Beside backyard, at
the entrance there also has a table and chair.
At downstairs has a
room which has single bed. Inside room has many extra beds and blankets.
Near with single bed
room has a toilet.
At upstairs, beside
rooms you can see sofa and table.
It has 3 rooms at
upstairs. It has 2 rooms which sharing same bathroom.
The first room is my
room which I stayed with another friend. Beside bed, it has a rack. All the
rooms are equipped with air-conditioner. The air-conditioner in my room seems
very old but very powerful because both of us feel very cold at night.
I dislike the door because the door is so noisy when I close it.
The connected
bathroom’s water of heater is not strong so most of the time I used water hose
when bath. Homestay is not a hotel so remember to bring own toiletry.
This is another room
which share same bathroom with my room. This room is bigger than my room
because it has a makeup table and cupboard.
These 2 rooms did not
have switch for handphone charging. Most of the time, I charged my handphone at
living room.
This is master room
which can accommodate more people. Beside air-conditioner, it also has a
ceiling fan.
The room is big which
has refrigerator, makeup table, television and big cupboard.
Inside of master room
has own bathroom.
For those interested
with this homestay can take a look at the business card which I took picture
of. This homestay is not in town area so for those wish to go town to find cat statues, you need to have a transport.
