The hotel needs a facelift in its rooms. It’s a 5-star hotel, and you expect more. The restaurant was good, and the food was good. On our second day, my server told me a croissant came with my breakfast, but I got charged. I didn’t say anything. On the 20th floor, you can hear everything from outside, like you are on the second floor. No soundproofing? It's hard to sleep at night.
