We successfully secured accommodation

We successfully secured accommodation that had a double bed, accompanied by a communal lavatory and bathing facility. The sleeping area is considerably roomy, equipped with storage capacity and an adequate number of power outlets. However, it is noticeably missing a mirror. The double bedding provided is not as portrayed in the photograph; it is in actual fact, two individual beds joined together. The mattresses are far from comfortable, as one could feel the springs which causes discomfort and an unpleasant sleeping experience. The bedsheet was not in the best condition either, evident from a visible hole. Moreover, we were faced with the dilemma of either leaving the window open and being pestered by mosquitoes, or closing it and enduring the excessive heat. The presence of a fan could have alleviated the situation. The communal bathing facility is relatively roomy and maintained to a decent level of cleanliness. However, the drainage in the shower is beginning to show signs of blockage, causing it to fill up with water. To add to this, the bathroom is shared with other occupants, leaving behind a residual mix of foamy water and grime. The lodging also includes a generously sized shared kitchen space which we did not utilize during our stay. The location of the lodging is favorable, situated conveniently next to the Clémenceau bus stop. The bus service number 13 provides a swift connection between the accommodation and the Luxembourg station within a short span of just 7 minutes. Despite the few shortcomings, the cost of the accommodation was reasonably priced. This makes it a decent option for travelers who are budget conscious.
