We stayed at the basic student dorm for 4 nights and it was definitely good value for the money! The location couldn't have been better and we loved getting an easy start to our days with the bagels in the kitchen. The service wasn't the best though - We asked several times for a light bulb on the first days as the lamp on our bedside table didn't work and it was never fixed on our stay. Also, the first night the heating got super hot and that made sleeping rather hard (it is a central control)... it wasn't a problem on the following nights though. We slept with an open window as it would have been to stuffy inside otherwise, but we weren't bothered by the noise of the fens in the service alley outside as it is quite constant therefore easier to ignore than cars rushing by. The sink in the room was ideal and we never had to wait for the clean shared shower or restrooms. There even is filtered water to fill up your bottles or make tea on one of the flours. For 55$ a night we liked it! We'd definitely stay here again.
