The property is dated. Thankfully the bed was comfortable enough to make me overlook the downside of the bathroom. The shower is very much like the hospital shower room. Sound proofing isn't that great as I can hear people running outside. Towels do have stains on them.

The room was big and spacious and enough space for a family of five. Kitchen was stocked with utensils, pots and pans for simple cooking during our stay there. It was summer and the weather was hot. The air con didn't reach the top level so it was very hot even during the night. Would be nice if a fan could be provided. There was some stains on the beddings so cleaning can be improved but otherwise our family had a great stay.
