Wasn’t a fan of triple bunk beds, the bottom bunk was on the floor and the top was very high up and it felt like we were packed in like prisoners. It also felt like you had absolutely no privacy because there were no curtains or any sort of privacy screens. The were also not nearly enough bathrooms for the amount of people, and the ones they did have smelled horrible and unclean

The bed linen was clean and odorless, the shower rooms and toilet were clean and odorless as well. The location is very good. The bed was cramped, I hit my head many a times sitting straight and I am not too tall. The ground level bunk was on the floor, the street is extremely noisy and it was cold inside the room because one young lad needed fresh air.
