Clean Rooms and Friendly Staff!

friendly staffearly check-inwarm roomfree parking
The staff were very friendly and greeted me upon arrival. I was able to check in early. The lady at the desk said my room was ready. The room was warm, and I liked it very much. Parking was free. The area is gated with cameras.
The walls are thin. I could hear everything.

The rooms were always clean and tidy. The shower and toilet facilities are also clean. The rooms had adequate space, about what one would expect from a hostel, and the radiators continuously provided heat.
