the staff was nice enough, i suppose. i mean, they did their jobs.
my room, the 'sovereign on food on ayurmana one a half-hour guided heritage walk from 7 am to 830 am', smelled vaguely of mildew. not exactly the 'exquisite heritage' vibe one expects. and the shower? more of a dribble than a proper wash. it was less a shower and more of an annoying mist.

My stay wasn't quite the luxurious experience I anticipated. The room felt dimly lit (even during the day). The pool area tiling was quite slippery when wet. The staff seemed to lack some hospitality training. Simple requests sometimes took an unreasonably long time to fulfill.

the pool area was acceptable.
our room felt overpriced for what it offered. there was outside noise , made it difficult to relax completely. the staff seemed more focused on large tour groups than individual guests, leading to impersonal service. the filtered water in the room had an unpleasant smell.
