the breakfast buffet had a decent variety, nothing too crazy but acceptable.
I'm not sure if they were understaffed or just slow, but getting to my "premium king room" seemed like an eternity every single time. it's just a minor inconvenience, but it got old fast.

the staff was very friendly and helpful. i especially appreciated the easy access to the adjacent mall, it made shopping and dining very convenient. the breakfast selection was quite extensive and satisfied my needs.
the rooms were not as soundproofed as i would have liked. i could sometimes hear noise from neighboring rooms. the pool was smaller than i expected, and it became crowded during peak hours. the room service menu was quite limited, it did not offer many options.
