The receptionists are friendly. However, there were a number of problems. house cleaning was terrible and inconsistent. Trash was not taken out for consecutive days, and bath towels were put on top of the toilet, which is unsanitary. Water pressure was very low that showers became so difficult. The facility is also quite old.
