Very helpful and responsive staff. Anything you need and if they can help, they'll help immediately.
Neighbourhood a bit dodgy in the night but it's safe and quiet inside.
They have hbo go so you can watch your favourite movies.
Nice that they have powerbank you can use when you go out.
Rooms are very small but cosy. Shower is see thru from the little room.
