1. Check-in staff wasn’t helpful. 2. Carpet in the room was quite old and dirty. 14th floor ambiance was outdated. 3. Made a big issue about parking, in and out privileges. Very inconvenient. 4. Since I had to leave early in the morning to catch ferry, staff had imposed restrictions on breakfast, forced me into take-away breakfast only option instead of full buffet breakfast. The box contained just fruits and juice. As promised, did not give any credit for parking.

Difficult to access hotel on arrival as so many taxis so ended up not getting into hotel carpark and then paying extra for parking! Some staff not as friendly or professional as I would expect from any hotel.
