Good place to stay
"Good places to spend a few days if you are on a budget and look for somewhere decent in a good location. Two things might upset you: 1. Their wifi signal can be weak if you are in your room (I stayed in single bedroom for man). 2. You might be disturbed by all door closing sounds outside."
