warm room undercooked egg
The breakfast room felt far too warm, a serious problem since it lacked air conditioning. this made eating difficult. also, the pastries were almost gone by 9:30 am. staff said there were no more, leaving me disappointed since i was looking forward to those most. the boiled egg i tried was undercooked. It was gooey and inedible.

The location was good for getting around. It was easy to access different parts of the city.
I was really disappointed that my room wasn't properly cleaned before my arrival. there were hairs in the bathroom and some stains on the carpet. It made me question the overall hygiene. also, the tv remote didn't work, i had to call maintenance to fix it, i wasted time because of it.
