Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
I had a disappointing experience during my stay. The moment I entered the room, I was hit with a terrible smell. I soon realized the flush wasn’t working, so I contacted the front desk and they sent someone to fix it. Although he got it working again, the flush wouldn’t stop running afterward, which made things even worse. I requested a room change, but the process took longer than it should have. Overall, the experience was inconvenient and far from what I expected. I hope the hotel improves its room maintenance and response time moving forward.
