Don't go here!
Only one working toilet and shower for the whole place, diarrhea splashed on the toilet wall beside the toilet. Bed itchy. Three people to two beds in a bunk formation. No quiet to sleep, one room mate kept me awake with her loud obnoxious talking into well past 1:45am. Nothing to do on site. I had to leave after 2 nights out of the paid 4 which they insisted be paid in advance and then did not provide a receipt for paying nor a refund for having to leave. Worst experience I have ever had. Don't be sucked in.

可もなく不可もなく。
中庭とリビングスペースがありキッチンスペースは少々手狭なものの道具も綺麗な物が揃っており、無料Wi-Fiも快適に使用できました。4人部屋に1泊しました。ベッドはパイプの2段ベッドで少々揺れること、上段だと天井が近く、また手すりがない為万人が安心してくつろぐことは難しいかと思います。部屋自体もそんなに広くないので大きなトランクだと全員分のスペースを使って部屋の真ん中でようやく開けるかといったところになると思います。Countdown等の大きなスーパーは少し離れたところになるので疲れていると少しツライかと思います。シャワートイレセットで男女共有の2部屋しかなく、他のスペースに比べたら清潔度は落ちますが、シャワーブースなどは綺麗に掃除されていました。パーティとは違うけど人と話したい人には丁度良い雰囲気なのではないかと思います。

ゴミ箱みたいな共有ルーム
スタッフの対応は親切で良ったが、共有ルームの先居者の荷物がゴミの様に埋め散らかっていてゴミ屋敷で寝かされた。しかも、暖房もなく、一晩中振るえていた。この日から予約していた共用ルームの宿泊をキャンセル。管理さえしてかり出来れば普通に良いと思うのだが・・
