Beware they charge $50 deposit at check-in for your keys, and you have to be on top of your credit card. They failed to refund my deposit until I checked my card statements and rang them up. The place was under renovation so there's lots of noisy workmen doing renovations with power tools. Bathroom didn't have a door at all, and the table/bench they provided was dangerously insecure to support the TV as well as your bags. There are better places that are more competitive and professional than this place.

I really enjoyed my stay here. Highly underrated!! Stayed for a few nights and the atmosphere was amazing. The staff went above and beyond to meet my special requests and were quite lovely to talk to. Room was clean and modern enough given the price. Will definitely be staying again!! :)

This place is cheap and if you’re ok to stay with Prison release patrons , it’s ok . Not very encouraging for youth or young people who want to change and not use drugs etc.
served the purpose at the time because of price .

Sleep on the street instead. No toilet paper, the aircon was taped over and out of service. The lights produce the heat of the sun and the beds haven’t been replaced this century.
