It was cool to stay somewhere with a lot of character and interesting people. Very unique, definitely not your place if you want something luxurious. When I visited (February 2019), they were undergoing renovations. There was a lot of equipment and old furniture spread about the common space. The common space wasn't really usable. We had some problems with the toilet leaking water onto the floor. Also, we were a bit annoyed when we paid about $110 per night in advance, and then later the room was available for $74 per night.
