The staff was absolutely amazing. Rooms were clean, however, fans provided were full of dust. One thing I didn't like and know they don't provide shower gel or soap in shower room. Fans needed to be adjusted but it was a struggle since the adjustment didn't work and had to resort to creative ways.

Cheap, functional, clean.

Convenient and clean. Bunk beds are fine but mattresses a bit thin and if you’re tall a bar across the end is a pain. Other than that it’s a cheap functional room.

Family of six - spent one night. Very clean, safe and quiet. Absolutely wonderful and extremely helpful staff, from the front desk to the kitchen workers. Flexible policies, allow you to store luggage for hours before and after checking in. Bus right across the street. This was a pleasant surprise!!!

The ensuite shower and toilet do have any shelves for toiletries. Imagine having 6 of us placing our toiletries on the floor whilst we shower. Likewise for the toilet where we have only the space around the sink for toothbrushes, toothpaste and what not.
