This is my first time travelling by myself, so initially I was amazed of how well the room appeared to be clean. That is, until I noticed some beer cans underneath the cabinet area where the microwave was. I simply just assumed that it could've been a simple mistake by the housekeeping staff, so I just let it slide.
However, as I settled in, I gradually started noticing some issues during my stay.
On my first night, I requested some hand soap for the bathroom since there was none. Well, I tried requesting for hand soap through the in-room telephone, but there were connection issues. I ended up getting a call from the front staff on my cell phone to request hand soap. A few minutes later, a nice housekeeping lady came in to hand me the soap, and she noticed that my sofa was incorrectly placed. I did not realize it until she pointed that out and stated that whoever cleaned my room before must've forgotten to move the sofa back. She kindly adjusted it for me! But these issues signaled to be that the hotel is missing some marks in key areas.
On the second day, however, I noticed something concerning in the elevator. The elevator license was expired. The license stated that it was expired on July 2025. Since I figured that a lot of people have used the elevator, maybe the issue was mentioned to upper management? But it certainly isn't a good look to have an expired elevator license visible to the guests.
The staff was amazing however!
