The location was very nice and quiet, with very good access to bus and light train transportation. The facility could have been kept in better condition. The kitchen had only very rudimentary utensils.

Quite clean, new fittings, a bit noisy. Owner says will fit felt to chair legs as they scrape on tiles and make a lot of noise. TV channels didn't work in unit 2. Pleasant reception. Easy to access. Undercover parking.
