Staying at Secter Place was a mixed bag for me. The clean room and nice pool were definite highlights, but the lack of WiFi in my room and some awkward service left something to be desired. The accommodations were cozy, but the space felt a bit cramped for two people. Overall, it had potential, though I felt it could use some improvements for a more enjoyable stay.
