Liked: Location couldn't be better! And all the people at the reception were helpful and kind to us all the time. Totally worth recommending this place!!! :)

Disliked: The only thing I didn't quite like was that there was a guy in our dorm who would take smelly fried food to eat in the dorm, and there wasn't any members of the stafff to check that.
