    The rooms are well designed, quiet, comfy beds, the curtain makes your bed a private space. Bathrooms are clean and numerous enough that I never had to wait. Common spaces are well maintained. Location is perfect to go anywhere, walking distance...

    Everything was very well thought out, there was plenty of space for personal things, even the 8 bed dorm.felt private as you practically had a little cubicle. Checking in was easy and the location was fantastic.
