It’s like a mini apartment, there is a lot of space to store your things and a lot of room to move around, the staff is really friendly and helpful when you ask. No one seems to not like their job and it’s always a clean environment and open walkways for you to bring materials to your room if you please.

No blanket. No chair. No tissues. No shampoo or conditioner. No hand towels or out of the shower walking towel mat. Coulh have slipped and falled. People hanging out in front demanding, " Do you need help. Dou you need help" Then last night 2 people knocked on my door. I called the front desk then they stopped. But heed, when I first came here the front desk wouldn't even answer the phone. Anyway the garden is nice. Back in the day, this was fine place.
