I was hopeful for a good stay, yet I found several problems. The breakfast area seemed poorly planned with a small dining area. It felt very cramped and navigating through the crowds was stressful. The dining room lacked a view and the artificial lighting.

The breakfast area were a bit of a zoo. too many folks crammed into a space designed for a hamster tea party. i practically had to arm-wrestle a babushka for the last croissant. also, the elevators apparently run on abu dhabi time. I swear i aged a decade waiting for one.
