transport passamazing sizeclean structuresmall triple room
the location REALLY worked for me! i got a free transport pass, which helped a lot. the room i booked HAD some amazing size, not cramped at all. EVERYTHING was SO clean and well-organized too, it.
i did notice the room size was a little small for A TRIPLE ROOM. moving around became tricky when we all were there together. the bathroom setup felt a bit tight with the toilet separate.

I enjoyed the chocolate fountain near the reception. It was a nice touch. my room included amenities. A kettle was available. the neighborhood seemed quiet. I could walk easily to bus stops.
The bathroom door was very thin. Sound privacy was limited.

my triple room was small I found it hard to move around without disturbing others. the bathroom splits into two tiny spaces one for the toilet and one for the shower and sink. breakfast had a strange layout I think food and drinks were split between reception and the seating area.
