Room was clean. Kitchen was new. Shower rooms could have more hooks or dry area to put clothes and toiletries. Toilets were clean and spacious. There is no laundry or it hasn't been installed yet, but the facilities description on Expedia has laundry included. It looks like there is renovation going on.
