I
stayed
in
Tower
A
on
2021.
There
is
no
privacy
in
Skypod.
Last
time,
most
of
the
tenant
are
college
students
next
to
the
condo
but
after
covid
no
more
college
students.
Since
then,
more
units
rents
out
as
AirBnB
and
homestay
which
rip
out
residents
privacy.
A
week
later,
I
found
out
im
staying
next
to
aurbnb
unit.
All
the
parties,
weird
peoples
come
and
go,
all
the
noises,
all
the
sampah
(from
bachelorette
parties),
fengtau
parties,
some
guys
only
wearing
underwear
while
the
door
open.
Neighbor
upstair
always
hentak
kaki
from
afternoon
to
5am
in
the
morning.
Fought
with
them
twice
since
the
management
cant
do
anything
or
not
making
any
action.
Oh
yes,
the
airbnb
unit
have
leakage
and
affected
my
unit
,
the
damp
condition
attracted
ants.
They
never
repair
it.
Dodgy
condo
filled
with
foreigners.
Karaoke
at
12am?
Walaoweh..
like
they
owned
the
whole
building.
There
one
security,
an
Indian
lady.
So
old
so
forgetful
and
so
annoying.
I
forgot
to
bring
my
access
card,
ask
her
to
open
the
door
and
scold
me
`who
are,
u
staying
here
meh?’.
The
procedure
is,
no
card
then
write
name
on
the
log
book
and
give
address.
Been
staying
there
for
almost
a
year,
give
you
food
n
drink
and
say
good
morning
to
everyday
and
you
cant
remember
me?
Cant
talk
politely.
Small
sink,
not
suitable
for
person
who
love
to
cook.
Swimming
pool
no
shade,
very
hot.
The
only
thing
that
is
good
about
Skypod
is
the
location,
walking
distance
to
IOI
Mall
and
public
transport.
Wayyy
to
many
complaints
that
I
wanted
to
add
in
here
but
I
don’t
eant
to
make
it
sounds
personal.
Pros:
Convenient
Location:
One
of
the
standout
advantages
of
Skypod
Tower
A
is
its
prime
location.
It
offers
easy
access
to
IOI
Mall
and
public
transport,
making
it
a
convenient
choice
for
those
who
rely
on
these
amenities
regularly.
Cons:
Privacy
Issues:
Skypod
Tower
A
suffers
from
a
severe
lack
of
privacy.
What
used
to
be
a
community
primarily
occupied
by
college
students
transitioned
into
a
space
with
more
AirBnB
and
homestay
units,
which
significantly
impacted
residents'
privacy.
This
led
to
constant
disruptions,
including
noisy
parties,
unconventional
guests,
excessive
noise,
and
even
unpleasant
after-party
trash
like
that
from
bachelorette
gatherings
and
"fengtau"
parties.
Some
tenants
displayed
a
lack
of
discretion
by
wearing
minimal
clothing
with
their
doors
open.
Ineffective
Management:
The
management's
response
to
the
privacy
and
noise
issues
was
less
than
satisfactory.
Despite
numerous
complaints,
the
management
was
unresponsive
and
failed
to
take
effective
action.
Even
a
leakage
problem
from
an
adjacent
AirBnB
unit
was
left
unaddressed,
resulting
in
a
damp
environment
that
attracted
ants.
Noisy
Environment:
Skypod
Tower
A
seemed
to
have
a
lively
but
noisy
atmosphere.
Late-night
karaoke
sessions
and
other
disturbances,
such
as
those
at
midnight,
were
a
regular
occurrence.
This
created
an
atmosphere
where
some
tenants
appeared
to
have
little
regard
for
their
neighbors.
Inefficient
Security
Staff:
The
security
personnel,
particularly
an
elderly
Indian
lady,
were
forgetful
and
often
displayed
discourteous
behavior.
This
was
evident
when
a
resident
had
issues
with
accessing
the
building
due
to
a
forgotten
access
card,
and
the
security
personnel's
reaction
was
far
from
accommodating.
Inadequate
Kitchen
Facilities:
The
kitchen
sink
in
the
units
was
notably
small,
which
made
it
impractical
and
inconvenient
for
those
who
enjoy
cooking
or
need
more
space
for
meal
preparation.
Unshaded
Swimming
Pool:
The
swimming
pool
was
not
equipped
with
any
shade,
making
it
uncomfortable
to
use,
particularly
in
the
sweltering
heat.
This
design
flaw
limited
the
pool's
usability
during
most
of
the
day.
In
summary,
Skypod
Tower
A
offers
a
convenient
location
but
is
plagued
by
a
range
of
issues,
including
privacy
concerns,
ineffective
management,
a
noisy
environment,
inefficient
security
staff,
limited
kitchen
facilities,
and
an
uncomfortably
hot
swimming
pool.
These
factors
should
be
carefully
considered
by
potential
residents
before
making
a
decision
to
stay
at
this
condominium.
