I will not book the hotel again, I don’t recommend the hotel as 4 stars hotel Liked: -The location although there was no parking available for customers -The room was spacious Disliked: -No room service available, I called room service or reception many times until they answered -I reserved three rooms for three nights with breakfast but we weren’t able to take our breakfast all the days because of the crowds,the number of customers more than the capacity of the hotel ,the number of waiters serving were two , you have to shoutout to get help -the worst was during check in, we arrived at 4 pm , the reception desk told us the room will be ready after two hours ?? I insisted to get the room or give my money back. They told me if you want your money , you can leave and will transfer after we receive from booking (maybe couple of days) ,I called the manager and after long discussion he promised the room will be ready at 5 pm There were a long queue of customers waiting for their rooms -shortage of staff :the number of staff serving in the reception desk ,house keeping,restaurants and room service very few -No isolation in the rooms, very noisy from the highway and corridors
