Wonderful Stay, Minor Hiccup

spacious roomrelaxing bathtubwelcome fruitclean window
The hotel offered a VERY spacious room. The bathroom included a relaxing bathtub. The welcome fruit basket was a nice touch I appreciated. Lobby design and window cleanliness stood out in particular.
The reception staff could use additional training. I encountered a slight issue with early check-in confirmation, which caused a bit of confusion. It was resolved eventually.

Underwhelming Experience

breakfast qualitystained carpet
The breakfast quality was not what I expected. I had issues getting a simple request right (for a masala omelette, no less), and it took multiple attempts. The staff seemed stretched, and service felt impersonal. The room also showed its age (especially the stained carpet) and lacked sufficient power sockets.
