All good, only one point to mention , the lock for room number 6 was broken I believe safety is priority so please fix the lock for room number 6 privacy is very important and locking the door of the room should be a high concern and fix it ,,,,, other then that all was good

It was beautiful interior, but being woked on and very noisy but clean. No oriention to public spaces. No front desk? All communique was done via whats app; even when in hotel. I did fall asleep early and am not aware if more interaction with manager in evening? There was no confirmation of next day shuttle arrangements The young lady who helped me to my room was very nice, but left and couldnt be found again In the morning, while waiting for my pick.up ride I did find a lovely patio, deck area with dorms off of it, but it was down a set of stairs in garage. It was just unusual. All worked out.

What a lovely place! The staff member who met me at the door was kind and thoughtful, and the room is large and comfortable. It's very peaceful, and I had a good night's sleep and a delicious tipico breakfast before my flight. They arranged free transport to the airport with a friendly driver. I will definitely be recommending Aurora Express to friends.

Host was hospitable, kind and went the extra mile to pick me up from the airport for free and arranged a driver to take we around the town. Accommodation is in a gated estate, secured, good size room and very clean. Breakfast was good too.

Disliked: Cleanliness
This is a home in a residential neighborhood. Enter through the garage and you do have access to the living room and dining area. You need to have an access code to enter into the neighborhood which makes it difficult for Uber or taxi. Nice clean accommodations but not the hotel I was expecting. The shuttle has limited hours so it didn’t work for our early flight.

It’s not like the pictures, it’s a house divided up into sleeping rooms. There is nothing in walking distance, so you are in a room and that’s it.
