Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Pros: Clean, good wifi, ample parking, quiet neighborhood, spacious, enough toilets/shower. Cons: Corridors are too cold due to insufficient heating. Freezing when heading between showers/toilet/kitchen. Room heaters turn off every 2 hours or less. Kitchen only has 1 washing basin.
