underwhelming stay, some issues need attention

central locationslow check-instale bread

the location is good and very central for exploring the area.

The check-in took an unreasonably long time, about 20 minutes. the room service wasn't great. I ordered a club sandwich, and it came with stale bread. also, the air conditioning made a loud noise all night, even on the lowest setting.

underwhelming stay

slow check-inlong wait

Check-in was slow. I arrived around 3pm and had to wait quite a while. i went for a walk and returned at 4pm, but the room still wasn't ready. i finally managed to check in at 5pm after pushing them a few times. i found the wait frustrating.
