Mixed Feelings About My Stay

thin walls infrequent housekeeping

I found a couple of things quite annoying. First, the walls are too thin. I could hear conversations from the next room (it's frustrating when you can't sleep because of that). housekeeping only comes once every seven days. This felt too infrequent for a hotel stay, especially since the room could get quite dusty and there were limited cleaning supplies available.

the room had a useful smart-tv, great for streaming. I appreciated the well-kept air conditioning, as it provided very good sleep QUALITY. the modern bathroom included shampoo and shower gel , which was very convenient. friendly employees were a noticeable positive .

the pool seemed a bit small, and the availability of loungers was limited, so it made relaxing there challenging.

useful utensils self check-in

The room included a microwave, a fridge and utensils. I could easily get extra towels and washing machines were available on the underground floor. Self check-in on my phone made everything simple. The hotel is located among cafes and supermarkets, convenient for getting supplies.

The room I booked was advertised as having two single beds and a sofabed, but we were provided with a double bed and a sofabed instead. The sofabed was about 15cm off the ground, feel uncomfortably close to sleeping on the floor.
