8/10 Good
"Fantastic location. Right next to night markets. In center of everything. The staff was excellent. Everyone of them over 5 day period I came into contact with. The apartment I was in - scratchy stiff sheets, the bathroom dad broken tiles in it, the a/c was full of mold and not working (which was ok considering time of year -spring) and they had someone come clean it while I was there. The owner should be doing regular maintenance and that was not done. The kitchen was well equipped overall except for measuring cups. I cooked quite a bit over 5 days and that was my only frustration in kitchen. Overall the location and staff saved the rating on this place to be Good."
