    Poor security

    Disliked: Poor security: There is no private card or key to access each individual room. The only access restriction in place is a code we are provided to open the street main door, (not sure shared with how many others else). No female rooms for solo travellers. Mixed toilets and lack of private space for change of clothes (reduced to the individual showers).
