Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Good location and actual bed is comfortable. Very good value for money
Negative: Not super clean, feels outdated a damp. Very dependent on what bunk you have I was at the end on the 4th floor and was extremely cramped getting in and out. Would appreciate a keycard or something as someone could walk off of the street into your bed if they wanted
