Disliked: Amenities
Everywhere inside the hotel is extremely cold. I woke up in the middle of the night several times because of the too low room temperature. Everywhere is uncomfortable to stay because it’s cold. The heater in the room is showing 30 degrees, but I think it’s not Celsius but Fahrenheit. I walked around the city all day long, getting tired under the cold winter weather , but because the hotel is also cold, I was constantly tired. I woke up having a soar throat. I kept shivering in the hotel. I understand the carbon emission things that hotel wants to prioritize, but it’s a serious health concern for me.

Room was very hot and couldn’t change it, long wait to use bathroom, staff not very friendly and welcoming on arrival compared to previous experience at the other hostel round the corner. Breakfast and kitchen facilities were good and overall everything was clean. Large room and bed with good storage space.

Welcoming staff. I stayed in an 8 person room. The room was okay, the curtain left something to be desired. It offered privacy but peeking eyes could see. Bed was okay for comfort. Lockers were suitable for a backpack and a few personal items. Each bed had a plug socket and light. Location is good for walking places, local homeless were not a problem
