Pros:Easy in-&-out, 8 beds (4 bunks) in a room doesn't bother me - I could have put a lock on the in-room locker, and could rely on front desk to secure my stuff (in a City with high theft rate). Internet worked, and it was comfortable to hang out on couches in the lobby, so roommates weren't disturbed.
Cons:Single toilet/sink/shower room for 8 beds meant roulette, trip to lobby with 2 toilets (4 flights below) or wait - no alternative to waiting for shower.
