The room was very soundproofed. A large group of students stayed there the night I was there, but I did not hear any noise inside my room. The staff are super chill and helpful, which I appreciated.
The shower temperature was not constant. It kept fluctuating from scalding hot to cool. I also had to pay for luggage storage on the day I checked out. I didn't think this was fair.
