Centrally located. Amazing staff, super helpful and friendly. Great coworking space if you're here working remotely.
What could be improved: The shower temp was not as regulated as it should be. Starts off burning hot, then gets ice cold.David from Mexico – 12 August 2024 (9/10)

Seems like a fun environment.
What could be improved: Could us some simple improvements. Rooms could use blinds that can actually keep out light/sound and provide some privacy. Current blinds are essentially transparent and serve no purpose. Was also hot when I went and the rooms have no AC. No plugs near the bed so nowhere to plug in the two bedside lamps or charge a phone/computer.Räfle from Switzerland – 24 March 2024 (8/10)

Location
What could be improved: I got a 3x times smaller room than what I paid for. This was a plain scam and should not be allowed in booking ever
