The place is as described. It has shared facilities but they are all very clean and tidy.
The rooms are very small, but big enough to store your bags. The rooms are not very soundproofed, so depending on the other guests staying there you might hear some conversations.
There is a wide variety of foodcourts just around the corner.
About the red light district, we didn’t noticed any hookers, just some guys lingering around. We hadn’t had a problem as we travelled as a couple.
Highly recommended
