10/10 Excellent

My daughter and I stayed in a room together. The bunk beds were comfortable. I appreciated that they had a place to charge my phone right by my head. The room was quite spacious. The bathroom was clean. Towels were large and nice. Great location, very walkable to shops, restaurants, and the train station.
