Great choice if prioritising location and price
Pros:

great location, helpful staff

Cons:

The top bunk bed has no protection from light in the room as there is no “roof”, would be nice to be able to at least preference which bed one would prefer (top vs bottom). So if someone decided to come in at 3am and another wake up at 6am and turn on the lights, you are not getting much sleep - maybe a complimentary eye cover could help solve the issue. Also the beds in the middle of the room (unlike the ones by the walls) have no shelves to at least put your phone on overnight when charging which is fine for a few days
