Location, way smaller than the pictures' online appearance, could improve maintenance, courtesy of some of the staff. Shower rooms were not clean one day.

It is a very clean space, the staffs are friendly and willing to help. An improvement would be maintenance in terms of the doors and surroundings. Also, there is only one restroom per floor for the shared bedrooms, that was so inconvenient! Over all, I liked it there and would like to visit again!

Area seems unsafe and inconvenient. The staff had a sense of snobbishness and told me mixed instructions. Some say if you don’t put your towel in the hamper then you get charged extra money and others say it’s fine, go ahead and leave your towel on the hook.
