I booked a single room with shared
I booked a single room with shared bathroom/toilet facilities but was not aware that there was only one bathroom/toilet per area. Gaining access to the bathroom proved to be quite a challenge in the mornings due to the high demand. If you need to go somewhere in the morning and want to use the toilet or shower beforehand you need to build in sufficient time to allow you to wait for access unless you are planning on getting up before the rush or using it after the rush. The rooms have paper thin walls so any movement in adjoining rooms, exiting or accessing these or the watching of TV is very apparent and will disturb most people's sleep. There was a TV on al night in the room adjoining me on one night and I would have been lucky to have got 3 hours sleep. The rooms are clean and come with a sink, crockery and cutlery and a bar fridge. They represent reasonable value if you are prepared to put up with the limitations that I have just mentioned.

Facilities are very very basic. Beds were not done during our 3 night stay. Room did not appear fresh. Windows were dirty and no evidence of any detergent used to clean the room.

思っていたより狭かったですが、2人なので不都合はなかったです
思っていたより狭かったですが、2人なので不都合はなかったです。部屋の所々に古い感じはありましたが、手入れはされていて汚いとは思わなかったです。ただ、シャワールームのカーテンにカビがついていたのが嫌でした。 あと、タオルを交換してくれる日と交換してくれない日があって、そこはよくわかりませんでした。レセプションに行って、交換してと言えばすぐに換えてくれました。 時期が秋の初め頃だったので過ごしやすかったですが、エアコンがないので真冬と真夏は厳しいかもしれません。窓は1つしかなく、風通しがよくないで 。 全体的な意見としては、6泊しましたがうるさくなくて静かだったので過ごしやすかったです。駅からも歩いて10分弱なのでアクセスも良いし、すぐ近くにスーパーがあってとても便利です。
