I enjoyed my second stay - this is the first communal stay Ive had though, and it was surprisingly not bad.
Everyone was very friendly and thoughtful. I made a few friends actually and even went thrifting with one of the girls. It's super important to respect everyone's space and time. Don't expect everyone to want to talk, etc.
I stayed a total of 9 days and arrived in a room with 2 other beds filled. They dont tell you when new people are assigned to the room. The lockers are only big enough for a carry on and small bag btw, so you'll have to decide if youre okay with leaving your other luggage out. Luckily I didnt run into any issues there. The bathroom is decent, but the shower is microscopic lol like your bottom sticks to the shower curtain small. I also brought flip flops to wear in the shower so it was bearable to share with other people.
I do wish the room was cleaned daily especially since there are 4 girls in one room. Our request for a clean/change of sheets was kind of ignored which was frustrating. They seem to only clean when a new person joins. I ended up cleaning up after a few people before I left so that the room was not left a mess.
Overall good for the price and you get to meet cool, new people!
