Extremely Loud Construction!!!
Under Construction inside and out! Unless you like the sound of sledgehammers, jack-hammers, power saws, and drilling through concrete, avoid at all costs! Remodeling, renovation, and construction have been ongoing for months on end, and there is no sign that it will end any time soon. Owners will be remodeling their apartments indefinitely. Tenants are not advised as to when the noise will start or end, and no consideration is shown for their peace and quiet. Staff cannot help, and are usually not informed of what's going on.
The positive reviews of this apartment were either written by the owners themselves, or by people who weren't here during the daytime, when construction runs amok!
Right now there is jack-hammering going on out front, someone is hammering on something in the unit above me (they do that most days for an hour or so), and someone is using a sledgehammer breaking through walls at the end of the corridor. I am surrounded by abrasively loud noise.
And don't have any hopeful ideas about noise cancellation headphones. I bought a pair. They are useless against construction on concrete.
[Note: Construction is between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., unless there's any need or desire to also do it outside of those times.]
Worst place I've ever stayed in Asia, and that's saying a lot!! It is impossible to be in your own room during the day. And they don't care! The owners and management want to remodel the whole building WHILE renting, in which case they don't want you to know about construction until you've signed the paperwork and they have your money.
