We had a private room & bathroom, which was clean but basic. The breakfast wasn’t great, but what you’d expect for the price. The location was awesome, and the staff super friendly. Would stay again!

The lack of breakfast options was under whelming for sure. No TV in the rooms. Shared bathrooms with the entire floor you get put on. Didn't realize it was a former all girls boarding school. For sure enjoyed the numerous different languages I did encounter during my stay.
