For the price of the room it was very acceptable. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was basic but did the job. Clean enough too.

Aidan

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Great location. Pretty poorly maintained and noisy at night despite their signs saying "strictly no noise after 11pm". The toilets were gross. And there's a reason it's called the maze, the labrinth of hallways to find your room and toilet are astonishing. Worse when a toilet is closed for cleaning so you need to walk a marathon to releive yourself.

Only stayed here as I needed a place to keep my stuff overnight and get a quick sleep in before a flight. The room had a disturbing smell and there was only one power outlet. The beds were also quite dirty. Wouldn’t stay here again.
