Excellent value, and great that it has a sports background and showcases rugby. Great place to also meet new people.
Nothing so far.

Amazing outside area with live music on Fridays. Breakfast is delicious! Great to socialize in probably the best area in town. After bar closing I can recommend the store next doors
Private rooms are on the pricier end for shared bathrooms

There is much to like about SL, but the purpose of this review is to be listened to, as all these items have been mentioned in person to staff, yet nothing has changed. I will happily delete this upon acknowledgement, and replace it with one full of praises 🙏🏼
- Please: a designated smoking area, or none allowed. Many times I’ve been nauseated by cigarette smoke while eating or working in the common area. - Please: wifi reaching the dorm so we can go work/call in there on the days the whole common space is blasted by loud sports projections. - Please: somewhere to hang wet towels in the dorm. - Please: some courtesy rules in the dorm… Take outside: Phone calls when people are sleeping, chemical deodorant sprays… Too many guests acting like it’s their own private room. Respect and thanks 🙏🏼
