Room was comfortable and large enough. Everything about the space was fine, aside from another guest who didn't clean up after themselves in the bathroom. For a cheap, safe place to stay - it's fine for the price. I will use it again in the future but only when traveling solo. I don't think my partner would have as much patience for a messy shared bathroom.
