The building was magnificent. An enormous ground-floor lobby, a big second-floor kitchen/dining area, and beautifully designed rooms on the 3rd, 4th and 5th floors. Also, you could charge your phone in many places.

The rooms were clean. It weren’t perfect, I could see ear plugs sticks between the mattress and the walls. It means the cleaning was not done properly.
