Fantastic stay
We loved our stay here. The price was just right, the location was second to none, the room and common areas were very clean, and the bed was unexpectedly amazingly comfortable.

The place was good, clean bathrooms, friendly staff. Unfortunately though, I didn’t get much sleep due to other people walking around throughout the night talking really loudly. Not your fault. Thanks

The staff was amazing, the floor and the shared bathroom was clean. But they said no noise is permitted with the notes on the wall, but unfortunately the people around my room were so loud, talked outside of my front door. Even I closed all the windows I could hear. But the other than that it was nice accommodation.

I arrived late and the other guests had piled a bunch of dirty dishes on my bed which was unpleasant. But other than that the staff was very friendly and helpful and the facilities were ok
