My room was not ready until 7pm… and I ask for 2 rooms next to each other even I have to pay extra for the room , because it’s was a corner room. The second room was not available, one of the front ladies was very rude I know it was not her fault but she didn't make the effort to try to compensate for their mistake.

The hotel was lovely. I wish I could have stayed longer. The only downside was the elevators were not sufficient for the amount of people there. I don't know if one was broken, but the wait was very long and often too full once it arrived at my floor.
