Everything noted about this room was accurate. It is a good base to venture out from but not one if you wanted to stay in the room the whole time. You are supporting a good cause with your money but there is an active business going on during the day so just keep that in mind. The bathroom and living space were perfect for having somewhere to clean up and sleep though.
