helpful staff members lots of plugs small hanger limited space
Check-in was straightforward with helpful staff members. The rooms made good use of space, with lots of plugs.
The room was TOO small for four people. It was difficult to move around easily. There was only a small hanger, NO wardrobes or drawers were available.

basic stay with some issues

great location easy transport wrong photo flooded bathroom
the location was really close to the station and , made it easy to get around.
The room i booked didn't match the photos online showing a modern bathroom, instead, i had a bathroom designed for disabled people and showering flooded the entire room. It wasn't very good.
