The rooms are comfortable and clean, the only drawback is that it says it includes breakfast but the reality is that it only has a cereal and bread, so it is better not to trust if you are going to stay here and look for a place to have breakfast nearby.

Each cabin is kept nicely private from its neighbours though the walls are quite thin so noise travels through easily.

The Unit itself was very clean and enjoyable BUT the bed seemed broken and very uncomfortable. When I pay to sleep somewhere, you want a nice bed. Maybe they need to invest on some new beds for peoples comfort.
