It's a dorm, nothing more

We booked a 4-bedroom unit. Twin beds make for uncomfortable sleep, poor quality floors and walls for a noisy stay. No active ventilation in the washroom. Tiny shower cell. Most uncomfortable was the AC that is only in the common room and does not have any effect on sleeping quarters whatsoever. You can't set the AC below 21 C either. Not repeating this experience. Positive was the total space and the nice University grounds.
