The room comes with an en-suite bathroom and shower. The property also features a cafe, a screening room, a bar, and kitchen facilities. When I experienced jet lag late at night, it was great to be able to relax in the cafe. The location is excellent, just 400 meters from the subway station. A short 400-meter walk also leads to an Asian supermarket with a good selection of dumplings, which was a nice bonus. The bar even offered a complimentary drink (wine or coffee) on one occasion.

Great price. Upon arrival, I was a little surprised by the entrance, which truly looked like a garage. No elevator, so be prepared for stairs. The place felt a bit neglected, but the shared dorm rooms were very good, and I slept well thanks to the spacious beds. Finding good food nearby was a bit challenging, as there was no restaurant or meals offered at the hotel itself. In conclusion, I had a very nice trip, slept well, and would definitely consider returning. I was also very happy with the wonderful people I met during my stay here.
