The curtains did not operate and then fell off track so we had light coming in and no privacy. We also booked and paid for the breakfast and now i see a charge on my credit card for the breakfast. Room was also extremely noisy.

The room was smaller than I thought it would be but very nice. What I didn’t like is that if you are in the 7th floor, people in the restaurant (8th floor) play music loud and move tables at 6am to wake you up.
