Great room, location, and value. It was clean and more spacious than I thought it would be!

− The floors/ceilings are quite thin and hearing people walk upstairs drove us nuts

Great location. But I wouldn’t prefer second time

8.0

Location is great easy to access metro stations and 7/24 open Restaurants and markets

− Room smells musty there was a room air cleaner but stopped working at the second day. Also we were staying at the across of the main building so access to the laundromat was limited they say we can use at 08.00am to 10.00 pm but ln the morning main gate wasn’t open so I go and use 7/24 laundromat nearby.
