helpful staff bus connection comfortable accommodation broken toilet seat poor shower high price
i found the staff amazing and really helpful. romik especially was very helpful and made sure i had everything i needed. the accommodation was comfortable and maintained very well. it has frequent bus connections to the city center, so getting around was super easy.
the toilet seat was broken which wasnt ideal. the shower wasnt the best, not what i was hoping for at all. i think the price was very high though i assume it was because of the fringe.
