Has a kitchen area
Past guests have liked having access to a shared kitchen at this property. Since this is a student housing unit during the school year, it is set-up for long-term stays, so guests were able to cook their own meals while staying there.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Uncomfortable beds
The rooms at this residence are equipped with bunk beds and guests have reported that they are quite uncomfortable. This made it difficult for these guests to sleep, as some have said that they would rather sleep on the floor.
negative:
Shared bathrooms
Each set of rooms shares a single bathroom and guests weren't comfortable with this set-up. The bathrooms are also said to be quite small and dirty, which didn't help the situation at all, especially when sharing a bathroom with strangers.
negative:
No air conditioning
There have been complaints about these units not having any air conditioning. Although there is a fan, it does not provide enough air movement to make a real difference, especially when temperatures rise during the summer months.
