1. Price was fair ($35/night for my 11-year-old son and I combined, prices may differ for your individual situation), laundry services were cheaper than the local laundromat, bicycle rentals and convenient to bus service, television, vending, guided side trips, kitchens for each separate dorm, and my son liked the fact that they had a computer for guests to use that offered free connection to the internet (in addition to regular wi-fi).
