It's actually all the same, the comments are almost the same. We understand the low cost. However, if you're going to use a gate lock system, it would be better to have two guards on shift, one on day and one on night. I've seen guests struggling to leave, but the guards insist they can't because it's closing time.
The location is actually nice, close to food stalls, the mosque, etc., and the building is nice. If it were completely renovated, it would be even better.
I hope this suggestion reaches the owner: please, is it a boarding house or a guesthouse that has a gate that MUST not allow you to leave? What if there's an emergency? If you do want to use a gate system, have two guards on shift, one on day and one on night, and most importantly, they must be friendly.
