Menale greeted us with a warm smile and professionalism. She explained all the hotel facilities in detail, from restaurants to the spa, and accompanied us to the elevator. The team helped us with our luggage, GREATLY appreciated!!!
Housekeeping missed a detail, cups were left dirty. Teabags, sugar, and even water bottles were not replenished. I found this inconsistent, and a simple refresh would have.
