Overall my experience was great. I liked the kitchen area but it was missing a blender and a broom. And I wished they just mention that parking is assigned according to RM number. Area was quiet and clean. A really big plus was that there was a place to take the trash in same property. And that the place had lots of lighting!!! I would definitely stay again.
