the staff was friendly and polite. they gave me great ideas for my proposal. angela, kasha, philip e, and mariana helped with the decoration and pictures after the proposal.
the water station on my floor was not working. i was not advised about this. a dirty food tray outside my door took nearly a day to be cleared. the air con in my room seemed very inefficient, so both nights were stuffy.
