“would not recommend.”
Looks nothing like the pictures online. couldn‘t sleep at night cause the fans don‘t do anything. bed sheets are not appropriate material for this climate, so you just sleep in your own sweat. the place has a really dirty vibe, they don‘t clean well. overall would not recommend this place to any self-respecting individual.
