adequate stay with some issues
disruptive noise slow breakfast
the noise from the corridor was disruptive it persisted late into the night and early morning i suspect thin walls contributed to this issue and it impacted my sleep quality significantly also the breakfast service was slow orders were often delayed and the buffet items were not consistently replenished this caused unnecessary waiting and affected the overall dining experience i expect better service efficiency at breakfast time
