It's a dorm, nothing more
We booked a 4-bedroom unit. Twin beds make for uncomfortable sleep, poor quality floors and walls for a noisy stay. No active ventilation in the washroom. Tiny shower cell. Most uncomfortable was the AC that is only in the common room and does not have any effect on sleeping quarters whatsoever. You can't set the AC below 21 C either. Not repeating this experience. Positive was the total space and the nice University grounds.

I only stayed here for one night. A few boys were laughing and talking loudly, repeatedly opening and closing the door until the early morning. It was incredibly noisy, which made it impossible for me to sleep and directly disrupted my plans for the next day. Other aspects are fine; each floor has a kitchen and refrigerator, which is very convenient. If we can ensure that these students are not so noisy, it would still be a good option.

A very nice 4 bedroom suite for less than a motel would charge for a room with 2 queen beds!
