The common area/lounge did not have any games or activities for families with kids to enjoy, lots of empty shelves and cabinets. The outdoor area needs to be updated including the uneven turf around the ping-pong table and the slotted fence where the ping-pong balls constantly fall through. There is lots of space to hang out however with plenty of comfortable seating. i would suggest bringing your own games and activities and you will have a great visit!
