Sunway Tara

We couldn’t sleep over the weekend because of the noise and the kind of people renting the place. The rules say you can’t use the pool after 19.30, yet people were swimming around 1 am. There were parties at 4 am, with people shouting at each other. We tried to reach the security guard, but nobody was in the building. The furniture and space are reasonable. If you don’t mind spending a few days without sleep, it’s fine.

The apartment was okay, but there was no maid service. Two rolls of toilet paper for four people didn’t last long, so we had to buy more. It says towels are changed once, but after our seven-day stay we had no clean ones. Wi-Fi was available in shared areas like the pool and balcony, and I could sometimes get it in the apartment too.

Cheap and clean, and the price was okay, but it wasn’t convenient. There’s no reception on site, so we had to trek across town to pick up the keys. We also had to take our own bins to the bin store on the street, which I’ve never been asked to do at a hotel or aparthotel. No housekeeping during our three days, and we ran out of toilet paper.

It’s only day three of fifteen, but so far it seems like a good place if you want somewhere quiet. The downside is the staircase and having to collect the keys from Playa Golf Hotel at the far end of the resort, so you need to allow for a taxi there and then back to the apartments. Hope to update later.
