All was good.

De bedden waren klein en de slaapbank lag niet lekker. Het ontbijt was karig. De keuken had geen inhoud en de tv deed het niet

Pros:

The breakfast was really freaking good. but the area wasn't too nice I always heard police sirens going up and down the street. The bed itself was very comfortable and nobody else really made any noise or the walls are just thick

Cons:

The location could've been a lot better, and the staff looked at me like I was stupid a few times but it could be a lot better and the shuttle isnt too reliable.
