Room configurations vary: some studios have a double bed and a single bed for up to 3-4 guests, while others have two single beds or a double and a bunk bed layout. Some rooms are described as spacious and well-laid-out; others are noted as compact, particularly when accommodating multiple people. Ground-floor rooms may have street-facing windows that require the blinds to be kept down for privacy.

Cleanliness is inconsistent: many find the rooms spotless and welcoming, but some have reported dirty floors, stained bed runners, and dusty surfaces. Noise transmission between rooms and from corridors is noted; road-facing rooms can be noisy. Air conditioning is available in at least some units but may lack clear controls.

The kitchenette includes a hob, microwave/oven, fridge, kettle, and toaster. Complimentary tea, coffee capsules, milk sachets, and bottled water are provided. Cookware, cutlery, plates, and glasses are supplied - some units may have limited quantities relative to the number of guests, so requesting extra items ahead of time is advisable.
