Pros:

Beds were comfortable, the location is ok

Cons:

Would have been ok stay apart from the broken shower door and the sketchy and scary drug addict living there who set of the fire alarms at 2am causing evacuation. Such a shame they rent rooms to these types of people.

Pros:

There was a functional drink/snak vending machine

Cons:

There was an open kitchen without any extractor so all the smell was on the hallways and getting in my room too. Carpet on the floor was dirty. Pillows were smelly, TV was small. Bad mold smell, you could see the dust in the AC unit, parking was advertised but only about 6/8 spaces in total so parking is actually on the street. Very small sink in the bathroom and you struggle to wash your face in there. Bad smell coming from the shower drainage.

Great stay
Pros:

It was clean and comfortable and priced great.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have a room to put luggage so I could explore before flying home. But this is not a complaint.
