Maintance needs urgent seeing to
I had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the breakfast. Room 603
However, my aircon dod not blow cold at all. The Hot water in my room took 15 mins to come, an extreme waste of water. This was with the maintenance crew standing and pouring the taps i could not use thw shower as the cold tap was not functional.
I was then assisted to tey find a new room. Of which we tried 612, 311 & 200 and something, not one of the rooms aircons worked. Nor did any of thw taps run hot in under 5 mins of pouring water I would hate to know the wastage water going through this hotel, bever mind the water bill
Arrived at hotel at 13:20. Lady at reception said I couldn't check in until 14:00, and that there was no early check in. So we waited until 13:50 to check in the lady still said "no". So when 14:00 came around I received the key to my room, and went upstairs to the room.
Upon entering the room I discovered the bed not even made and the rubbish hadn't been emptied.
I returned to reception, where I was told to wait again for housekeeping to make my room. Spoke to the manager who changed me to a room that was ready.

It was okay.... Struggled with communication. e.g. the person who made the booking never returned my calls or messages. So i had to pay for a room I wanted to cancel because of the bad communication. Even if we did not use the extra room. We were never on the breakfast list, even when we paid for it.

The toilet flush does not respond always.
The front desk failed to order a taxi for our trip to the airport in the morning as they had promised.
At the sink the water is deflect it and sprays the clothes of the person washing his or her face.
