Each room includes a wardrobe, heating, and a private bathroom with shower and sink (WC is separate and shared by the floor). Room sizes are 18-21 m2; the space can feel cramped in the larger dorms. The lack of air conditioning means windows are often open, which lets in street and garden noise. Some rooms have a balcony or terrace. Bed linens are supplied; guests make their own bed. Small lockers are available (bring your own padlock). Only USB-A charging ports are at the bed; there are few standard power sockets. The property has a lift accessible to upper floors.
