mixed feelings about my stay

poor air conditioningstation noise
the room was not what i expected. the air conditioning barely worked, even after i asked them to fix it. it stayed uncomfortably warm, made sleeping difficult. also, the noise from the nearby station was noticeable. i could hear trains and people at almost any time of day. the experience felt underwhelming. especially for the price i paid.

insufficient air conditioningunhelpful staff
I found the air conditioning insufficient, even after it was supposedly unlocked on the second night. It never got cold enough. the front desk staff insisted it was working, a claim i found untrue. the refrigerator broke down the following day, but again, the staff insisted it was fine. uber could not stop directly in front. Only taxis were permitted. this made managing luggage difficult despite staff being present outside who offered no assistance.

The location was quite central. Travel links were available. It allowed me to quickly spend time in the city center. The morning buffet was delicious. Tanya's warm smile added to my experience at the rich and fine English Breakfast in the beautiful rooms.
The room felt a bit dated. The fridge in the room did not work! The cleaners were noisy in the corridor. It was around 7:30 am. I found it disturbing.
