negative:
Uncomfortably petite rooms
Expect the rooms to be a bit on the smaller side. Many guests commented that while the rooms are clean and convenient, it's not very big and you can't do much except shower and sleep in it. You may not even have room to open your luggage, several guests warned.
negative:
Beware of no windows
All rooms at the Rex Petit are located underground and don't have windows. This meant the room is a bit darker. Another guest complained that being underground meant poor Wi-Fi connection. The Rex Petit says it is cheaper because of the rooms are located underground and don't have windows.
negative:
There's no place for your belongings
You won't have any room to lay out your belongings or your toiletries. There are no closets or space to hang your clothes. Guests say you just have to live out of your suitcase, because there isn't any room for those items.
