Besides the infestation of lady bugs, and the bathroom wasn't totally clean the room good. The morning breakfast attendant really needed to do her joband not sit around talking to a co-worker/friend. Garbage was overflowing and the coffee was out.

I booked for two nights and hanged the tag for maid service on next morning. But they didn’t do it. The receptionist told me that the breakfast will be served from 6 am but actually started at 7. And no bread for the toaster. Only bagels and muffins.

Adequate.
Room was ok, buffet breakfast was fine. A/C unit was as incredibly noisy and smelled damp when heating the room, left it off so sleep was possible.
