6/10 Okay

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The housekeeper of the property cleaned very causally, dirt on the chair and table was sticky. And hair drier emitted smoke when in use. The shower was weak. The instructions given by the manager about the check in procedure was not clear enough, we spent some time to open the door before we could enter into the property.
