amazing apartment, super service!

studio apartment equipped kitchen daily service helpful staff
the studio apartment was definitely bigger than i thought! there was a separate bedroom, a lounge room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a nice bathroom. plus, a washing machine and dryer were available. our room got serviced daily and i really liked that. the staff were super pleasant and helpful, it was awesome!
the only tiny issue i had was a slight smell of garlic from the dishwasher! a few tears existed in the wallpaper but did not affect the stay. everything else was perfect.
Dining
10/10
the kitchen had several types of tea, coffee, and even hot chocolate! it was so cozy, just like home and i loved the bottle of milk they thoughtfully provided in the fridge. it was a very nice touch.

adequately located, some issues present

stained carpet dirty walls
the staff were quite friendly and helpful. this was a positive aspect of the stay.
i was disappointed by the stained carpet, it really detracted from the overall feel of the apartment. some of the walls also looked dirty, and that lowered my satisfaction.
