Quite Stay

I really enjoyed this property nice and quiet. I went for a short stay and it was worth it. But the only thing I wish they get up-to-date gym equipment, the treadmills doesn't work. But overall the apartment was comfortable and nice. Just as the pictures described it. I would love to come back some other time!

It was nice to stay in an apartment as I had just come from a 5 star hotel so needed private social space. The bedroom had AC, the lounge/kitchen had a fan light, the kitchen had the basics to cook with, it was clean. There was a washing machine, you just have to base it on home from home but you have to buy your basics, drinks, soap powder, all cooking ingredients or simply eat out. The ground staff are pleasant. Space to eat and entertain. Unless you book both bedrooms you will only have access to one. Bath soap and x2 toilet rolls provided bring your own if more than 3 days. Only constructive criticism is the bed sheets needs to be upgraded but it was clean and value for money.
