Hard to find - and no one heard of it

Arrived after sunset. Searched for almost 2 hours to find the place. Map provided pointed to what was a park with no buildings on it. Asked passersby, that said they lived in the area for over 20 year, never heard of the place or the address. I went into a convenience store and asked for directions - the employee never heard of the place - which was surprising, since when I finally 'stumbled' across the door when a car's headlights briefly illuminated the door, the convenience store was in the same building! No on-site service, no obvious signage, emailed directions and map was useless. did not feel secure in room. Shared bathroom (sign over the toilet said roof leaked) in a second floor flat with several 'private bedrooms' with common area living room and kitchen. Not at all what was expected. But the internet connection was very good.

College Street Abode

Exceptionally clean inside. Cleaner was very helpful when we arrived. I was on a trip with my son. Downside: bed was extremely uncomfortable with the springs giving us bad backs. Some nights we were kept awake by other people until at least 1.30 in the morning. Loud noises continuously throughout the night but what I presume was a large outdoor fan
