The small things are also frustrating like only providing one garbage bag. And if you order linen expect to make your own bed! As mentioned, the location is very convenient and having a lock up garage is great if you have bikes like we did but don't expect a modern apartment. Overall struggled to feel like this place offered value for money. ##### Chantelle B.
