Greeting staff was eating and only look d up when I said I was checking in. I had prearranged early check-in and he argued with me about it. I was told by front desk staff (who was sweet and apologetic!) that kitchen was open until 10. Bar staff (much less friendly) said kitchen closed at 9.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was dirty and so we did not swim in it. The hotel had a weird smell, and so did the water coming from the faucet in the bathroom. The soaps are all liquid in the rooms and had too strong of a fragrance.

You had to pay extra for food services but menu was very small and not very many selections to choose from. Elevator was beyond slow and delayed. Drink machines on every floor but were not plugged in, so you had to purchase drinks and snacks from front desk, not very many options available to choose from as well. Couldn't get a physical receipt either from purchases. Room was very expensive for 1 night and food services were only available between certain times... i will not be staying at this hotel again
