"Only spent one night, but would definitely stay again if needed"

The kitchen was a really nice surprise! The community areas are well organized, and the Cafecito next door was delicious. I found out after I got there that it's kinda hard to get a bed there since it's pretty popular — I can definitely see why!

Very minor inconvenience, but the room was quite cold—and I usually sleep with a fan! Could've also been because I had a top bunk 🤷🏾‍♀️

The rooms were clean. It's simple to check in and check out.The living room at plan 2 is really nice.
