It was a depressing stay.

Liked:There was no breakfast at this location. There was no soap, but they had shampoo in the bathroom instead of hand soap .There was no conditioner either. You could hear the neighbors upstairs and next-door. There was no refrigerator. Coma and the only view we had was out of a brick wall. It was depressing.

Disliked:We were disappointed in the smallest of the room and lack of amenities. It was clearly a place for students, and not for people, looking for a comfortable bed, bathroom, and window.

Liked:Easy to access. Check-in via a locker box. The room is simple but does the job.

Disliked:No person to meet in case of a need. During the evening, the fire alarm rang and we had to wait for 15 minutes for the manager to arrive and try switch off the alarm. One of the customer found out how to switch it off himself. Not really reassuring.

Great

Liked:+Very good location, supermarkets/restaurants everything close by +Easy check in +Very spacious room with a sofa, chest of drawers +Have option to change towel every day +leave luggage service +cozy bed with reading lights and power outlets next to the bed

Disliked:-Although there were 3 windows, it was possible to only open one. The other two were stuck, combined effort of 2 adults could not open them. (maybe they are screwed-in to prevent opening them, I am not sure). -A bottle of handwash in the shower (at least the label on the bottle said so) instead of proper toiletries. When I contacted the host, I was told it’s a shower gel and shampoo 2-in-1 sort of thing. I am not sure if that was the case so went to supermarket and bought my own.
