i appreciated how easily accessible everything was (it. the kitchen had some starter items . i also found the self-catering option very convenient. the bed offered good comfort and a restful sleep.
the lack of daily cleaning was a minor inconvenience for me. i had to request cleaning supplies to maintain the room myself. this took away a little from the experience.

i am grateful for the safe, clean space it provided. i felt very comfortable . i found the price amazing for what was offered. the staff responded quickly to my messages regarding my duties and inquiries.
I noticed the absence of towels in the room, unexpected. I think providing towels would significantly improve the guest experience, eliminating the need to bring their own.
