The double room was awesome! It had its own private entrance, making me feel like I had my own little hideaway. Plus, the microwave was super convenient for quick and easy meals.
But honestly, I didn't really dig the bed linen. It just didn't feel as cozy as I would have liked.

Great value for money and amazing location near restaurants and shops. Staff was friendly and helpful, and the laundry facilities were convenient for long-term stays.
The mattresses were thin and uncomfortable, and the rooms could have been cleaner. there was no free WiFi and the other guests were not always respectful of shared spaces.
