Great location
Pros:

Location was great, felt very safe. Plenty of outdoor relaxing space which was great as we were a group of friends who had somewhere to meet outside our rooms.

Cons:

Shower was not good, no door or curtain so bathroom floor was always wet. No hanging facilities which was awkward .

Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

Nada más llegar nos metieron en un zulo haciendo pasar por habitación, hacíamos 5 noches y pedimos el cambio de habitación y nos lo hicieron para la 3 noche. La habitación que nos cambiaron tampoco era nada el otro mundo, pero por lo menos tenía armario y te podías mover.

Goede locatie, erg gehorig!!
Pros:

Locatie is top, middenin een bruisende straat, schoonmaakpersoneel is top! Ook het dakterras is erg fijn om even de drukte te ontvluchten.

Cons:

Zorg dat je op de 3e etage slaapt. De kamers op de 2e etage hebben heen raam, bedden zijn mega hard (planken). Vooral kamer 202, vreselijk. Ook hoor je al het geluid van buiten en van de kamers naast je. Oordoppen meenemen of genoegen nemen met een paar uurtjes slaap.
