Location is near many restaurants and bars. Bus stop is just outside the door. Staff are very friendly. The only downside is that the bed is somewhat comfortable

Parking is only available from 5 pm until 7 am. When I arrived at 3, I was unable to check in because they were unable to offer me parking. When I came back at 5, I was told I could only park if I moved my car by 7, creating an unexpected early morning for me. There is no A/C in the rooms. It was 95 that day and I was given a northwestern room on the fourth floor that no one had bothered to close the blinds on. They also prevent the windows from opening fully. It was so insufferably hot that I lay on the bed in my underwear with the door propped open - so much for a private room. I didn't fall asleep until 3 because of the heat. The staff were also rude when I checked in. The bedding and showers were clean. Without a car and with a room on the other side of the building and/or not at the height of summer, I'm sure staying here would be fine.

Clean, quiet and cheap if all you want is a place to sleep for one person. My single room was spartan and the single bed was too short for an adult male, but the faculties were clean.

Fine
Small single room. Shared facilities. Bit like a small student hall room. Not particularly clean. Same for kitchen. Bathrooms clean though. Fine for a one night stopover on a budget but nothing more.
