Liked: Cleanliness
Overall room was good worth its price. Share bathroom and toilet was a bit difficult to use because all the time have to dress up and go out from room to the hall and then toilet. there was a cat there and always roam around and wants t enter to the room all the time, for those who are scared of cat is not very convenient. Rooms' door was not safe enough and can nt lock it from inside safely.

The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. The food provided in the morning was lovely and stayed there all day, so good for a snack later on! Free tea and coffee all day too. The location was great, close to everything we needed with a bus stop just over the road. There are also tonnes of shops and places to eat around this area. Shared bathrooms were always clean. Only slightly negative point I have is that our room was dull and dingy because it had no window but not a problem if you’re constantly sightseeing anyway!

Staff was beyond nice. First night was in a room with window, wayyyyy too noisy and bed was really bad, super lumpy. Second room was better (it had two beds) one was ok the other was completely caved in. This room smelled bad like cat pee and cigarettes( probably from the ventilation system) soap for washing your hands after going to the bathroom would be nice. Loved the kitchen and breakfast area
