Pros:

Busse und Bahnen in der Nähe. Ein Einkaufscenter zu Fuß erreichbar. Das Personal ist freundlich und ist sehr bemüht, Probleme zu lösen.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind sehr dreckig. Schimmel im Bad, Ablagen und Abflüsse werden nicht gereinigt, unter den Stöpsel findet man Haare und Dreck von vielen Vorgängern. Die Toilette, wird die überhaupt geputzt? Es war einfach nur ekelhaft.
