Clubhouse amenities are just marketing gimmicks, change my mind.

Okay I'll be honest — downsizing is way tougher than I thought. Kids have moved out, don't need such a big place anymore, so looking for a compact flat in Ghaziabad. I'm checking out places near Kailash Avenue. Builders talk big about clubhouses and amenities, but are they actually usable daily? Yaar, I've heard stories about maintenance charges being high but service quality being zero. What's the real scene there? I mean, is it worth paying extra for a fancy clubhouse if it's always empty?
