Comfortable, can use some more cleaning.
Pros:

Nice property, modern furnishing.

I just needed a place to sleep. It gets bonus points for how clean it was.
Pros:

It was quite most of the time and very clean.

Cons:

I wasn't able to access all the facilities I paid for because a previous tenant had left their belongings in what was supposed to be my dry storage. And one of the days they left a smoke detector with a low battery and I couldn't sleep.
