8/10 Good
"The bathroom left a lot to be desired. The toilet was mounted on a piece of laminated wood, which did not look hygienic. The toilet seat was very loose. The whole studio looked like it could have had a deep clean around the edges. The bedding was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Location to restaurants was very good."
