Staff were super friendly and helpful. Main areas are kept modern and clean. Room was dated but clean. TV did not work properly despite having it looked at. Very inconvenient, the volume kept shutting off.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room is neglected and old. The heating system doesn’t allow setting a temperature or using a thermostat and is very noisy. The showerhead is fixed to the wall and sprays in all directions. The sound insulation is poor, and noise from neighboring rooms makes it hard to sleep. The staff is Friendly and welcoming.
