Bel Air Soho

Room didn't look like the picture. Kitchen cabinets held together with packing tape. Mold on kitchen sink. Cockroaches running around bathroom. Wallpaper on windows. AC and bathroom fans sounded like airplane engine. So dirty I slept in my clothes and didn't take shower. Left the next day even though I had paid for six days.

I chose this place thinking it was close to the places my Asawa would be needing to go for exams and interviews. I was very wrong. The owner/caretaker seems to be a good man and was very helpful. He was very quick to reply on most things I asked/inquired about, and very helpful in taking care of my Asawa. Thank you for that Sir Henry! As it turns out, this is a "RED LIGHT" district and many prostitutes (women & men) everywhere. My wife did not tell me how bad it was until she was back in the safety of our own home.....HAI NAKO!!! The room (kitchen) was not quite as represented when booking, yet again the owner/keeper was very good and helpful, and there is a guard at the door that was also helpful and kind. I would say not good for family or single lady on travel, yet great for single man looking for fun.

In the room I stayed in, there is one drawer with grain of rice that is infested with small roaches. The room overall is fine. There are restos in the vicinity that makes food accessible and there is also convenience store. The building itselt is old though but maintained clean.
