empty minibarpoor soundproofing
I found a few things less than stellar. The minibar was empty. I expected at least some water. The soundproofing wasn't great. I could hear noise from nearby rooms. It was like listening to my neighbours' conversations through a tin can. No one wants that kind of intimacy on a trip so it became a bit annoying.
