Acceptable Stay, but Some Issues

dirty room uncomfortable bed
The location was good (close to transport and sights).
The room was not properly cleaned before my arrival. I found stains on the bedroom table and the bins had not been emptied. the bed was quite uncomfortable. It had an odd bump in the middle (, made it hard to sleep).

Balanced experience

prime location large room breakfast floor dark room glass door shower enclosure
The location is prime for exploring. The rooms are large. Breakfast on the 18th floor is a must-do even if one does not stay at the hotel.
The room was very dark making it hard to see. The bathroom opens into the bedroom with glass panel doors. The shower has no enclosure so the water went everywhere.
