Location ok, unfriendly guard, swimming pool not well maintained.
Stayed here for some time. Great facilities with The Club attached to the residence. Newly added edible garden and badminton court freshly painted. The coffee corner is newly added.
Close to the 1 Utama and the MRT. Clean, not too high density and has a great cafe.
