acceptable stay with some issues

good varietyinadequate air conditioningmissing fan
the breakfast was decent, it had a good variety.
the room lacked proper air conditioning and only had a small fan. despite requesting an extra fan, it never arrived and sleep quality suffered because of it. the absence of staff made resolving the issue difficult.

small roomfluctuating temperature
The room was far too small for the price i paid. i had trouble moving around with my luggage. the bathroom was tiny, with barely enough space to turn around, it was a serious design flaw. the shower temperature fluctuated wildly. Scalding hot water would suddenly turn ice cold, i found it really irritating.
