Absolutely fantastic location with a reasonable price tag. Fairly bare bones, but there was a common space and balconies available for use. The staff were also really lovely. It would be nice to have automatic locks on the external door handles, as I found some people did not lock the bedroom door when they came in/out (there are solid lockers, but it’s best to have the door locked when you’re sleeping).
