Only two very small shower cubical’s available.I'm not a big person but anyone slightly portly would have great difficulties. Staff totally disinterested. In fact vacant is a word that springs to mind to describe them.

Nice place for solo 1 day stay

It is clean, quiet, comfortable, in the city, close to coach and bus to the airport. A bit expensive for a 8-bed share room.
