Rooms are nice and clean. Kitchen are supplied with kitchen tools and supplies to cook up a meal. A great alternative to a hotel and a 30 minute walk to the city center.

Easy student accommodation perfect for a cheap and convenient stay. Front desk was very helpful and welcoming at all hours of the day. The rooms themselves were fine, communal kitchen should have provided cleaning materials. For a nonsmoking building everything reeked of cigarette smoke - I believe our shared neighbours were smoking out their window.

Acceptable place at affordable price. The bed is uncomfortable. The room as well as the bathroom is clean but some facilities are broken.

Liked: Staff & service
The entire bathroom gets wet because the shower is not separated from the toilet, there was no bathroom mat as well, which makes the area really inconvenient to use. For a student accommodation the walls were also very thin, couldn't sleep the whole night cause you could hear everyone when they were walking or opening/closing doors. I gave it an average rating for being average.
