Won't recommend to the others.

Liked:it's a quiet place. Kitchen looks like new.

Disliked:The property lacks basic maintenance and amenities. The entire floor has seven or eight rooms, yet there is only one shower for men and one shower for women, along with just two toilets for all guests on the floor. The lock on one of the showers was broken. The showers provided only hot water, with no cold water available. There were also no hooks or shelves to hang clothes or towels, and no soap or shampoo was provided. The room was too small to fully open our suitcase. In addition, the floor was covered with dust and did not appear to have been properly cleaned. I also wish there had been an on-site customer service agent available to assist guests when issues arose.
