basic stay with a couple of issues
slow air conditionermildewy bathroom
i wasn't thrilled with my room. the air conditioner was slow to start, taking about five minutes to actually turn on. even then, it didn't get cooler than 28 degrees celsius. there were also a lot of ants. if any crumb fell, they'd appear. the bathroom didn't smell fresh, it was somewhat mildewy, and the floor got really slippery when wet, it was a let down.
