Stayed here in July. Staff were friendly. Campus was quiet. Very safe, you basically need your room key to get in everywhere. Rooms are dorm like, concrete walls. Room had a fridge and microwave, no tv. Overall I would stay again

I loved thelocation. The vibe with all the summer students and other families. We visited the art gallery that was nearby in another residence, which we really enjoyed. I didn't like that there was NOthing in the kitchen. If you say there is a kitchen, people will automatically presume there are some dishes and cutlery. There was NOTHING. Nor was there communication to say there is nothing, BRING ALL YOUR OWN STUFF.

Good stay
it is really good to stay here. Accommodation is secure. Two keys are given which first one is for main door and second one for personal room. They also have food court which provides all you can eat food with charge.
