The water temperature on level 2 showers was beyond inhumane. At least 40+ Celsius. Showered on level 2 were better since you could adjust the temperature. There weren’t lifts so had to take my 20kg luggage to the 3rd floor. Staff were really friendly, toilets were generally clean. The top of bunk beds were disgustingly dirty. Dust accumulated for years probably.
