Pros and Cons

The staff is extremely friendly and the traveler roommates were super awesome, caring, and disciplined. The cleanliness needs severe attention. The linens weren't changed. Baby cockroaches everywhere. Shower doors don't close completely, letmading water to stagnant outside of the shower area. The bathroom needs massive cleanliness of both floor and walls.

Hiç temiz değil hiç bir anlamda, ne yatak ne çarşaf ne yastık ne WC ne de duş kabini. Hobisi aşırı derecede pislik içinde. Hakkaten nasıl 7.2 aldığını anlamış değilim. Fiyatı düşük görünce biraz uzak olduğu İçin düşündüm fakat vasıfsız olduğu İçin fiyat öyleymiş.
