The apartment was very clean and had excellent decor I appreciated the cleanliness.

The security system was not easy to use I found the door code entry system complicated. There was no toilet paper provided I had to ask for it.

the room i stayed in was the beautiful king room. it had really good quality fittings. the location was excellent near the park. i liked the convenience of the key code locks, although they were a bit tricky.

the pillows were uncomfortable, they were very saggy.
