Very good - my one gripe might be that there aren't enough lockers in the room I was staying in (L-4) for the number of beds.

Hello Emma, Thank you for your review and feedback. We are pleased to hear that you had a good experience. We do have multiple free lockers in the lower level and our secure luggage room that guests can use during their stay. We hope to see you next time. Best, Jason Schultz Assistant Manager

If you enjoy being surrounded by young, drunk folks from Europe, this is the place to go. If, however, you value a quiet sleeping environment, I suggest you steer clear.
