Ottima posizione, appena arrivi al primo piano si trovano subito la sala comune, la cucina ed il bar, superata una porta passi davanti ai bagni ed alle docce, molto puliti ed in ordine... Alla camerata femminile si accede con un codice sulla maniglia (questa soluzione m'è piaciuta molto), 5 letti a castello in tutto, tutti ordinati, pulita la camera, piumini a disposizione per ogni letto. Wi-Fi gratis, ma ho notato a tratti scarsa connessione. Al mattino presto, quando mi sono alzata, ho trovato il personale alle prese con le pulizie.
