Shower Relief

I had a great experience with the shower pressure during my stay! The water was perfectly warm and had excellent pressure, making it refreshing after a long day of exploring. The cleanliness of the shower area also added to the positive experience.

Vibrant Common Space

The common area was fantastic, with a welcoming atmosphere that encouraged socializing. I enjoyed playing board games and even joined in on a jam session with some guests. It truly felt like a community space where everyone could relax and have fun.

Convenient Kitchen

I appreciated having access to a well-equipped kitchen during my stay. It allowed me to prepare my meals, and the friendly vibes made cooking a pleasant experience. There were enough utensils available, and it was always stocked with essentials.
