Was a great place to stay on such a tight budget. The kitchen could have been nicer and kept to a better standard. Some of the toilets needed to be cleaner and with handles on them, but Jimmy a good place to stay

I liked the beds (maybe not the mattress itself…). They all had privacy curtains. Its old and very dated but low in price and the area it is in is great! Would stay here again.

Mrs Potts is super cute. I appreciated the privacy curtains on the beds and found the place to be unique. The location is great for accessing buses, trains, and just walking. There are restaurants, fast food, convenience stores right there. And it is near plenty of tourist attractions. Laundry service is available for a fee, which is convenient. I would definitely stay again.

Never again

Door didn't work properly, and some random person came in in the middle of the night, my niece's sheets had what looked like dried blood on them, so she slept on the quilt from another bunk.
