10/10 Excellent
"yeah pretty good. my room was on level 01 which was quite noisy though as the common room is on that level and for some reason they have all the corridor doors open. i kept shutting them though when i wanted to sleep so that solved that. i'm sure some rooms don't have that ability though, which could be an issue for those. otherwise very good. Jenna looked like an old girlfriend of mine though :("
