The place isn’t fancy, but it’s still very comfortable to hang out here. The air conditioning works great. The vibe is chill. You get two microphones with covers, so you can do duets.
If we can comment on one thing, it’s that the room is not as soundproof as we would want. But given the price, we think it’s a great deal.
