POWER BLACKOUT ISSUE
The unit is recently renovated with equipped kitchen. But electricity supply is extremely BAD. We experienced frequent BLACKOUT. We asked host for help immediately after check in, we waited for 1.5 hrs after agreed appointment time with the host but technician never arrived. Later we found the power supply cannot afford the necessary appliances to run. Eg. when we were using 2 out of 4 rings electric stove, all aircon & water kettle shd be OFF, or blackout. When oven was on, all kitchen appliances & aircon shd be OFF, or blackout, so we never used the oven. We reset the power switch box each time after blackout to resume the power. We lost confident on the technician punctuality and found our way to manage blackouts, so we asked the host not to send technician anymore to save our waiting time. We guessed the house power system cannot afford/far below the power that kitchen electric appliances required which meant the problem cannot be easily fixed in a short time. Instead, we asked the host to fix it after we checked out in order not to mess up our stay further. We preferred not to move to another room in the same building which may have the same issue. Although we used the appliances carefully, we still experienced blackouts everyday
during our 11 days stay. Also, the electric water boiler tank was not big enough to support our family shower during winter. We need to wait long each time for water reheat from 35 to 55 oC.
Overall, it was NOT a pleasant and enjoyable stay.
