the food at the restaurant was acceptable, with a diverse menu available.
the restroom became unusable during heavy rain, a major inconvenience. i also found the lack of air conditioning made the room uncomfortable, especially during the day. furthermore, sound insulation was poor so i could hear everything happening outside.
