inadequate soundproofing water system

The breakfast offered a rich variety of choices.

I found the soundproofing inadequate. I could clearly hear the water system operating in the adjacent room whenever the neighbors showered. This disturbed my sleep.

generous minibar modern gym buffet selection

I found the minibar generously stocked with water, a must given the climate. the gym has machines, free weights, and several treadmills, i observed. i appreciated the buffet dinners as an opportunity to sample local cuisine. The selection was plentiful.

The lobby lacked seating. I noticed no areas to relax upon entering, slightly inconvenient.

adequate stay , but some issues surfaced

non-functioning shower stuck door

the rainfall shower in my premier king room did not function , despite attempts to fix it. the sliding door to the toilet also frequently got stuck , a minor inconvenience. furthermore , i encountered a bug in the bathroom on the 45th floor , which was unexpected. these issues detracted from the overall experience and required multiple interventions from staff.
