Wonderful Stay and Friendly Staff

ample space hotel guide reward offer
The room offered ample space. A QR code accessed the hotel guide. I found this convenient. I appreciated the offer to choose a reward for foregoing room service. This showed environmental awareness. I was impressed despite a minor hiccup.
I had difficulty with the reward link. It failed, and the room was serviced regardless. Addressing this technical issue would enhance the experience.

slow service limited staff
The bar service was slow due to limited staff. I waited a long time for someone to serve me, especially when I wanted tea (I LOVE tea!). At dinner, staff did not offer sauces until we asked. Getting those condiments took ages, and most of us had almost finished our meal. It REALLY got on my nerves.
