宿泊前の問い合わせ時返事は少し遅かったが、0時過ぎのチェックインでも大丈夫と返事をいただき安心しました。 スタッフの方は説明を翻訳ソフトに入力してくれました。 部屋のドライヤーが壊れていたがフロントですぐに借してくれました。 シャワーはすぐにお湯が出た。 2段ベットは丈夫で上り下りが静かだった。 WiFiもつながりました。 部屋にはロッカーと冷蔵庫、バスルームがあります。ロッカーには鍵がないので持参した方が良いです。スリッパもあると快適です。タオルなどアメニティー類は何もないので必要です。 キッチンは地下にあり、コーヒー、ミルク、オレンジジュース、パン、パンケーキは自由に食べられます。 街中へのアクセスもよく良い宿でした。
