rooftop swimming pool restaurant view thin wall extra fee
The rooftop swimming pool had amazing views. the restaurant there was also good. the location was quite close to attractions. I walked about 20 minutes. breakfast was good too.
I found a couple of things not so great. Nobody paid any attention. the walls were thin. i could hear neighbors loudly. it was also easy to hear kids crying.

adequate stay WITH SOME ISSUES
leaking toilet unenthusiastic staff
The SMALL room was a bit of a letdown, and the toilet, WELL, it leaked when flushed. clean water, sure, but still MESSY. i also found the staff's attitude somewhat lacking. They weren't EXACTLY rude, but a bit more enthusiasm wouldn't hurt. i won't mention the noise.
