Very Good
The location was central to a very walkable area. Our room was spacious. We were on the upper floor so we did not hear the kitchen or bathroom noise that other guests were unhappy about. There was a sink and mirror in our room which made it easier to not spend too much time in the shared bathroom.
We were led to believe we had a private bathroom, which was not the case. There was only one bathroom for five rooms, which was a bit difficult, especially since the toilet was in the same space as the shower.

The room and location are really great, it's a nice little appartment. It was amazing to stay in a hotel after a weel of van life. Nice bars and restaurants around. Communication was quick. Easy to find.
As mentioned in other reviews, you share bathroom with other people so it really depends on how loud or quiet they are. We had some pretty quite people so it was fine.

We only stayed about 7 hours, but the directions to get there were good, and the stay is in the middle of the shopping district, which makes it perfect for tourists. The bed was comfortable.
Didnt really like that the shared toilet was in the shared bathroom, so if someone was in the shower, you couldn't go to the toilet.

Very comfortable large bed, sink in the room, good location:)
In the room the main light was very weak, quite dark in the room (had to keep blinds down all the time as window was on ground level in front of big parking lot).

Everything was great. Very cozy stay in terrible weather.
The microwave oven and Fridge are very well camouflaged and would have saved me some trouble if more obvious.

Good location
The room lacks the minimum set of furniture to accommodate personal belongings (wardrobe, chest of drawers, etc.). Only one chair and one hanger in the room. Poor sound insulation, heard every creak.

The location was amazing.
The room is a lot smaller than I expected. The bathroom is also shared between all the rooms in the house so if someone is showering..

The accom was very central to the city and main attractions.Room was comfortable and heating good.
Difficult to locate..which others had said in reviews. No identification on building..I was on first floor and the only toilet/shower were on the ground floor..sound transferred through the walls and floor, so be aware..I often felt someone was about to open my door not next door...requested a new towel on 4th day, which did not occur..suggest check how often any linen is changed.. when it said share bathroom, I did not expect only one toilet/shower in the same room for potentialy 10 people on a different level. Found the microwave by chance after day 3 of 5 night stay..a directory would be helpful..no plug in sink for washing dishes..

The location is superb
In the middle of the busy street so be aware that it could get noisy late at night and early in the morning

Location and staff.
The room was like a box. It had the smallest window, which was facing the trash. So no air and light... the photos were misleading. There was no space or furniture to put our stuff. The pillows were very uncomfortable.

The location is very central and you are just a few steps away from the Main Street and several attractions. Overall it was very clean and the beds and sheets were really comfortable.
Staff response is really quick.
Our room was very small and we barely had space to open our suitcases. A few shelves or more hangers would have been nice.
Only one bathroom for all guest is quite a challenge in the morning and everytime someone took a shower the bathroom was flooded. A rug or something to clean up after taking a shower would be helpful. Also no hairdryer is offered.
You can hear almost every from the other guest so I recommend bringing oropax.
Also no free parking is available. I would recommend coming on a Saturday afternoon and/or Sunday. During these times street parking is free.
Thank you for your information!
