The staff was hardly there when you needed them which is the reason I might never go back but the rooms were clean and the area was quiet and also close to public transportation.

Workers have low English proficiency . There was a challenge when trying to communicate with some of the workers. Although the reception and all other things were generally ok.They must improve in this regard. Some workers are good but only the one that I communicated with when I left the place

I liked the studio apartment that I stayed in and where it was located which gave me some privacy. I didn't care for the pool parties that they had.
