The provided cot lacked a mattress, only a hard base. Breakfast included excellent fresh fruit juice. The location near the station was convenient, about a 5-minute walk.
Requesting an extension cord incurred a $10 hire fee.

burnt hairdryer dirty corridor
The hairdryer in the room had a burnt soap inside (who puts soap in a hairdryer?). This made the hairdryer unusable. I had to ask three times to get a replacement half a day later. There was also a lack of cleanliness. The corridor outside my door remained dirty for three days. (At least they gave me a free drink for the hairdryer incident.)

effective light reducing curtains comfortable bed convenient transport dirty room holes in blinds poor soundproofing
The room had effective light reducing curtains and a comfortable bed. A fridge in the room contained drinks. The price was clear. Public transport was ten minutes away. It provided easy access to the sights.
Our room was not vacuumed or dusted recently. The blinds had holes, a major issue. I could hear every word from the neighbors. There was no sound proofing. The advertisement indicated a couch in the room. There was only one chair in a very small room.
