"Pros: It'a a brand new property. Very clean. Conveniently located. Comfortable beds. Cons: The room design is not well thought trough: there's only one chair in a double room; the ceiling lights are so-so — just one globe and it's too bright. The fridge size is ridiculous."…""Pros: It'a a brand new property. Very clean. Conveniently located. Comfortable beds.
