Room was nice. I liked that the toilet and shower were in one cubicle and u didnt have to share with heaps of people.. It was just for one person and private. The washing machinen could be upgraded as it doesnt spin the clothes property and they are always wet. And the dryer took 2hrs to dry the clothes. Time for new one
