mixed experience at the hotel
unkept balcony intrusive signs
I encountered some issues . my balcony was not properly maintained. it was quite dusty with bird droppings on the glass panels. the 'we buy any car' signs directly facing my room were also quite intrusive. the work commenced with tractors. Dump truck noise became unbearable and zero communication was provided about this disrupting work that significantly impacted my experience.
