"One of the cleanest places ive ever stayed in, there wasn’t even dust under the bed.

The place is a bit dated but wasn’t an issue as i just used the place to sleep between being out all day. Only real issue i had was that i couldn’t bring snacks back into my room otherwise place was great. would defiantly stay again when...
