Excellent location in the historical area of Batumi. Friendly hosts. Comfortable rooms. One disadvantage in our room was that the door between the rooms was closed, and the neighbors could hear a lot from behind it.

EXO ROOM

Level 4 Local Expert

After reading the cool reviews about this hotel, I decided that it would probably be fun to live in such a place: a house museum and right with the locals, like very hospitable people. So, in the beginning, everything was very good: the hosts seemed very welcoming, showed and told everything. The room is large, everything seems to be clean. It just smells a little like sewage, but that's bullshit. There were no bath accessories (it costs 5 thousand rubles per day), only a large bottle of liquid soap and 2 dental kits. By the way, I found a torn label from other people's things in the room... they didn't even really clean here. But that's all bullshit.… How can I close my eyes We wanted to pay for the room right away, but it turned out that you can't pay with a card, you just need cash. Well, the hostess says pay when it's convenient, even at check-out. Well, it's kind of OK. We agreed that we would bring the money the next day in the evening. The next morning, which I was looking forward to, because the breakfast promised to be fantastic (as they say in the reviews, I bought it) there was a very meager set of things that I don't eat at all. There wasn't even an omelette or scrambled eggs.… let me remind you, for 5 thousand rubles per day (100 bucks)... and there was no khachapuri in the morning either 🤦🏽♀️ So it was also flavored with a reminder of the payment. Well, it's OK... I said we'll pay in the evening.… At 5 p.m. on the same day, I returned to the "hotel" and the owner asked me to come to him and, in a not very friendly tone, told me to pay. At that moment, I wanted to connect to wifi to text my friend, who actually had money for the hotel. He was supposed to come back later. I tell the owner that there is no Internet and I can't contact my friend, I need to do something to make the Internet work. To which he replied that this was not his problem and reminded me that I had been living with them for the 2nd day for free. Let me remind you, we offered payment immediately!!! And they also said that we would deposit the money in the evening... for 10 minutes I asked to restart the router, to which the owner pretended that he did not understand me and said call a friend like... and how will I call if I am in another country earlier and not only is roaming, but there is also no network in principle as a result, the router rebooted and I was able to go online and contact a friend. He said he would come in 1.5 hours, which actually had to wait in this "hotel", because it was already uncomfortable to go out… We gave the money back, and I thought that they would probably leave me alone now and everything would be fine. And it seemed that way. On the trail. it was already adjarik in the morning and even what I asked for. How would it be ok. The same morning, I asked for the same breakfast the next day... but in the evening, of course, it turned out that there was no such cheese in the store and, in short, there were some excuses.... In the end, at the check-out, I decided to ask to stay for an extra hour, to which I was told to lower my suitcases and wait downstairs at 12 pm (!!! Despite the fact that they usually check in at 14:00) other people will already arrive ... at 12 ... probably cleaning will not be provided for them… We haven't cleaned up once in all 3 days, by the way. Anyway, thanks for the hospitality. A hostel for 500 rubles per night is even more pleasant than there.
