1 Noisy
Very noisy at night. I had booked a private room because needed sleep due to early bus the next day but all night there were doors slamming. Kitchen was dirty too. Definitely would not recommend staying here.

1 Pretty bad
Room had no windows and it was painted like some sort of kids' room -- very uncomfortable. Also the walls are so thin that you can almost hear everything, the bedside lamp had no light bulbs. But the worst is the shared bathroom -- female one had only one toilet for the whole floor of twenty-five rooms, three showers, and two handbasin -- one of them was blocked and despite telling them to fix, it didn't get fixed. The male bathroom was filthy, I suspect it hasn't been cleaned for at least three or four days. There are far better places to stay for same kind of price.

1 Not good!
Fire doors slamming all night, really worst mattress ever -- like sleeping on wood. kitchen was a pit, kettle and lamp didnt work, and white blind meant room was fully illuminated from street light. most miserable woman ever on reception. luckily we were only there for one night.
