Very good - staff friendly & particularly helpful. Not so good - horrible smell in stairs & corridor. Not sure what it was, smelled like a cross between stale wee/vomit & disinfectant.

Super easy. I booked a room with twin beds that ended up as a double, I lived with it. Only one bathroom working which could have been an issue if all guests wanted to use simultaneously
