    If you're Not particular if the room looks scary, pipe in toilet is brown in colour, hot shower is not hot, bidet problem after you take a dump. Then for the cost, I can say that it will be good for you.

    TV Signal & Maintenance”

    Love the spacious room but poor TV signal. Room need to be upgrade - room looks old-fashioned & need a make over. Door looks old, not secure & doesn't have privacy seems don't have a manual lock.
