the apartment i stayed in felt pretty outdated. there was a weird musty smell in the bedroom and the pillows were just lumpy. it was hard to get a good night's sleep because of this. the initial receptionist wasn't really helpful when i asked about switching rooms either, so that was frustrating!!!
