"no issues"

7.0

really cannot fault the central location, right in the middle of town and just up the road from the intercity bus stop! all the facilities were attentively cleaned by staff every day like clockwork. i really liked room eight, the ten bed dorm, it felt spacious with tall windows and high ceilings, and with ample shelving and storage too. for a $10 fee the staff will even fit in your personal laundry around their own housekeeping

nothing stands out as a negative, apart from perhaps having to share hand towels rather than paper towels or a dryer in the bathrooms
