My main problem with Lal Yaan was that the parking instructions were vague at best. We arrived late at night in the rain and the instructions said there was a sign in a parking lot that said management company. No such sign exists. We spent an hour driving back and forth and finally gave up and parked in front, getting an earful from the neighbor the next morning. We finally walked the next day to a parking lot and saw a sign that said Lal Yaan, but it was a tourism company or something. Otherwise, the place was very good location and comfortable.
