8/10 Good
"Gym and drafty window made it less enjoyable..no water in water dispenser in the gym...like it quiet regarding people but never any music or radio so you need to bring your headphones....walls in gym need repairing from damage...and the draft coming from our bedroom window was audible and visual"
