Pros

Full kitchen facilities allow for self-catering flexibility

Cons

Shared bathrooms in some rooms

Airport located 7.5 miles from property

“Frankly, the reported conditions give pause: think peeling paint and makeshift partitions, not a charming, lived-in feel. Basic amenities appear stretched thin, and cleanliness seems a real issue. Location aside, the price tag raises serious questions about value for money.”
