This is a good place for single travellers or those looking for a hostel alternative, most likely not great for larger groups. Has shared bathrooms and a communal kitchen. Rooms are a bit small but are okay for a short stay.

The photo does not represent the rooms. Our room (215) was tiny and cramped. The bed was advertised as a Queen. It wasn’t. It was a double which is too narrow and too short. The staff member maintained it was a Queen. This was false.
