missingWrote a review on 23 Novlack of shadehigh charges
The location lacks shade around the pool area, making sunbathing unbearable. Additionally, I faced significant issues with the recommended tour agency. Lastly, the strict extra charges for guests using the amenities felt overly rigid, diminishing the overall experience.

the rooftop pool was completely underwhelming, and let’s not even start on the lack of shade by the sunbeds. how very ordinary! I expected a welcoming upgrade for my troubles, but the staff didn’t seem to see my worth. it’s almost comical how poorly they manage guests' expectations. tried to be nice, but I just couldn’t.

The rooftop pool area offers a nice view but lacks shade, making it feel a bit exposed. The first floor has a spacious common area that could be a good hangout spot with some improvements.
Rooms can be quite dark due to limited windows, with some even smelling like mold. The shower temperature has issues, fluctuating from tepid to cold, and towels seem worn. Noise is prevalent from the corridor and street, making it hard to get a peaceful rest. No elevator is available, so hauling luggage up the stairs can be a hassle, and access to the hotel requires buzzing in, often with no one present at the front desk to attend to guests.

I stayed in a Standard Family Room for 3 nights. The room was pretty cramped, especially with a toddler, and the windows faced the hallway—no fresh air. Plus, we had to worry about forgetting the key inside. On the positive side, it was clean and everything worked, but the lack of ventilation was tough. The main door being locked gave a sense of security, though.
