some issues
poor soundproofinglong wait
the soundproofing was very poor. i could hear everything from the neighboring rooms and the hallway. it was quite disruptive, especially at night. also, the wait time for food in the restaurant was excessive, we waited nearly an hour for breakfast one morning. some people left without eating due to the delay.
The room felt very spacious and included a comfortable bed and pillows. Its modern shower room and television provided convenience. Cleanliness shined and the space felt fitted. I enjoyed the food in the evenings.
A wait of an hour for the main course and another hour for a dessert seemed a bit long. The waiting staff were friendly yet felt a bit chaotic. This aspect would benefit from improvements.
