Pros:

Comfortable bed and layout was good. Good location.

Cons:

The a/c remote did not work so well as I could only get 22, 24, and 30 degrees on the remote and nothing else.
The microwave did not want to switch on and I tried r Rey combination of buttons. So maybe a bit of maintenance between peoples stays would be good.

Most important part of the apartment was a let down
Pros:

Location was great, living area was a good space and it was clean

Cons:

Bedroom is tiny with no ceiling fan or air conditioning, it was very hot with two people in there even on a cold night. The mattress was also hard and could feel the springs digging into you. Wasn’t a great sleep

For the price we got it, the room was passable. I didn’t want to spend more time in it than I physically had to which wa
Pros:

Convenient location and easy car parking

Cons:

Very unclean, linens had blood stains and towels had weird brown marks on them even when new. There were also cockroaches found at the kitchen bin, bathroom under the spa bath and on a bedroom wall.
