Loved almost everything about my stay! The only thing was the location of the showers was awkward, and communal dorms will always have their drawbacks, but that’s what I signed up for. Everyone was lovely, the facilities were great, and loved that each dorm and front door was locked.

Over all was a nice place, but the restroom area is literally infront of the front desk, where everyone can hear you, the showers are dirty and public and the noise inside the building is a lot, I end up paying another hotel.
