The province is a fun place to live with a very communal feeling. I have had some problems with the maintenance request either just not being processed or it taking maintenance a very long time to fulfill the work order.

While the accommodations themselves were very comfortable, I was unexpectedly moved to a different room, other than the one I was initially assigned, at the last moment.
