SILA Urban Living rents studios and apartments rather than standard hotel rooms, so every unit has a kitchenette and most have a full kitchen. All units share the same basics: a private bathroom with a rain shower and free toiletries, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with cable channels. The two studios for two guests, the Deluxe Studio (33 m²) and the Executive Studio (37 m²), differ mainly in size and view: the Executive Studio has floor-to-ceiling windows over the pool.

The larger units have a living area, a dining space for four and a washing machine: the Deluxe 1-Bedroom (48 m²), the Executive 1-Bedroom (52 m²) and the Signature 1-bedroom (60 m²). The Signature 2-bedroom (67 m²) is the largest unit, sleeps three and has two bathrooms with a bathtub. For two guests who want separate beds, the Studio Executive Hollywood Twin (37 m²) has two single beds, and the Staycation Offer is a package built on a 33 m² studio.
