My room was located in a very central location. I could easily walk to many places. The room was clean and it included basic amenities. Self check-in was an easy process. I received helpful instructions.

The room had a strong smell of dampness. I could see traces of moisture on the walls. Sound insulation was poor. Everything happening in the hallway seemed like it was happening in my room. The door fitted poorly.
