Not the best
The rooms are dirty, the pillows not comfortable, I took the junior suite and I got a small suite with a very bad view to ceilings on the same floor, and the walking distance to the room is very long

6/10 Good

Unfortunately, you can hear other guests in the hall and in their rooms. I really found the hotel to be very noisy and it was far too easy to hear the conversations and noises in other rooms and up above and below my room. I was on the second floor. Pulling out the key card to control the power which is done by the housekeeping staff causes multiple issues. You think you’re charging your phone and it’s not being charged because the housekeeping staff has pulled the power in your room. The other problem with pulling the power from the room is that it is connected to the Internet. The hotel has apps on the TVs so you can log into your Netflix or prime or Disney account etc.. When the power is pulled from the room, this disconnects from the Internet and causes a technical problem where you have to call someone to come up and reset the Internet for the TV. I recommend that the hotel not pull the power to the rooms and or disconnect the TV power from the power in the rest of the room. I also recommend that Instructions be left in the room so gas can know how to reset the Wi-Fi themselves rather than having to rely on hotel staff to do this. Another issue was that a lot of the food items in the dining hall were not labeled so this causes north Americans to sometimes put things on their food that they think are sauces or things like ketchup when they are not. This causes a lot of waste of food when people do not know what they are eating.
