long queuestowel shortage
The breakfast was chaotic, with long queues stretching across the lobby! it felt more like a busy train station than a luxury hotel. also, the requirement to book time slots for the swimming pool was annoying, especially since there were hardly any towels available when we arrived. this meant i had to wait ages dripping wet. It was hardly relaxing.

Check-in was quite the ordeal, a line stretched longer than a golf course! i waited far too long, and then they gave me a room that felt more like a standard motel than a luxurious escape. the tv remote didn't work. the promised turndown service never showed up. the minibar prices were outrageous.
