Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

paper-thin walls ineffective curtains
The room was clean and spacious (always a plus!).
The noise levels were a problem. I could hear everything from neighboring rooms and the hallway. It was like the walls were paper-thin. The blackout curtains were also ineffective. Light poured in early, not ideal if you want to sleep in (especially on vacation).

Subpar Experience

cold room absent assistance
The room temperature was hard to regulate. It was too cold upon arrival. I asked for assistance, but the staff indicated that the heater was functioning properly, not true. Luggage assistance was also absent during both check-in and check-out. This lack of service impacted the experience negatively.

Decent Stay with Some Issues

thin walls no room service
The recently refurbished bathroom was nice.
The walls seemed thin (I heard a lot of noise from other guests). I booked this place expecting a 5-star hotel, but it seemed more like a 4-star. They didn't offer breakfast or room service, pretty shocking.
