The apartment that we stayed in were very nice. Staff were friendly and helpful. We just wish that the kitchen is equipped with more condiments so we can actually cook with them such as oil, salt or pepper.

Apartment was clean, crisp white sheets and nothing dirty with good amenities for a few days stay but common area carpets weren’t vacuumed in 4 days with leaves and bugs everywhere. Our room (18) had a stale smell like old cigarette smoke or something very damp inside and reed diffusers had been used to mask the smell. Our stay was ok but we were disappointed in our room. Location and staff were great
