Acceptable Stay with a Few Downsides
steep stairs shared toilet
My experience here was less then amazing. The lack of an elevator after climbing what reminded me of a million stairs with heavy luggage wasn't great. sharing a toilet with so many other guests proved inconvenient at times. It seems like this place could use some improvements in accessibility and facilities.

steep stairs thin walls
The location was really good. It was close to everything.
I was quite frustrated because there was no elevator, and i had to carry my heavy bags up several flights of stairs. then, the noise from the street at night made it difficult to sleep, and the thin walls meant i could hear everything happening in the neighboring rooms. It was so annoying! i really think they need to improve the soundproofing to make guests more comfortable.
