Travelled with group
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We were never greeted by the host, the shared space had an odd smell, and the bed frame fell apart when I sat in bed. There was paper in the sink and the bathroom was unisex with only a shower curtain to separate.

Clean. The manager is very kind and professional. I hope they implement a stricter after hours noise rule. Some people do not realize how easily the sound travels.
