Stayed here in July. Staff were friendly. Campus was quiet. Very safe, you basically need your room key to get in everywhere. Rooms are dorm like, concrete walls. Room had a fridge and microwave, no tv. Overall I would stay again

I loved thelocation. The vibe with all the summer students and other families. We visited the art gallery that was nearby in another residence, which we really enjoyed. I didn't like that there was NOthing in the kitchen. If you say there is a kitchen, people will automatically presume there are some dishes and cutlery. There was NOTHING. Nor was there communication to say there is nothing, BRING ALL YOUR OWN STUFF.
