"Overall, it offers good value for money. However, there is a lack of privacy, as the sleeping areas are quite open and noise from other beds, including snoring, can be very disruptive. The beds are currently separated only by wooden screens, and better partitioning would significantly improve guests’ comfort and privacy."
