All in all it was fine, cheap accomodation in a great location, shared facilities are fine and honestly wasn’t really on top of anyone. Bed was comfortable, there was a fan and warm blanket. Simple accomodation, perfect for what I needed. <br/>There were only two downsides, one was the floors and furniture seemed like they had not been cleaned in a long time, there was rubbish and dust and stains on the floor. The bedding was all clean though. <br/>The second downside, was as part of the check in process, I was made to put down a $200 refundable deposit? On top of the fee already paid. This would be fine if it was communicated beforehand, the other option was a $80 non refundable deposit which seems just a little bit sleazy to me.
