The early check-in at the hotel was helpful. I paid an additional fee, though it was worth it. The swimming pool also provided a good experience.

The reception area looked a little under staffed!

The room was surprisingly spacious. The blackout curtains ensured total darkness, rare. Plugs next to the bed were convenient.

The room keys kept deactivating. I had to go to the receptionist to reactivate them. There was also some mould in the bathroom.

absent air conditioningdreadful customer service

I am mad about several things with this hotel. The lack of air conditioning is a joke. It was terribly hot in the room and made sleep impossible. Staff was rude when I checked out early because of the heat. They seemed not to care about my discomfort. Their customer service skills need improvement badly.
