Other than the issues I mentioned earlier, everything else was fine.with the facilities provided,it was worth the money
Pros:

Even though the facilities are a bit old,that’s okay.i only had an issue with the mosquitoes,which were very disturbing.. another problem was that opening the door with the key card was quite troublesome

Cons:

Main issues:
1. Mosquitoes
2. Key card door access
