Room service menu still has to be requested
Room service is available, allowing guests to dine in their own rooms for privacy and convenience.

Some pointed out that this is something not expected from a five-star accommodation.

Bathrooms are slippery
While most of the room's features are perfect, some guests complained about the bathroom. Guests pointed out that the floor can be a bit slippery, especially with the lack of non-slip mats. Each bathroom is equipped with luxurious amenities, though.
