A Very Disturbing Experience
Cons:

1.There was excessive noise in the corridors. I even called reception to intervene. I was informed that security personnel came to speak to the guests, but it did not help much. Eventually, I had to step out myself and ask them to keep the noise down. This disturbance lasted for at least three hours.
2. The carpets were being vacuumed at 11:00 pm, which made it impossible for me to sleep. I had planned to rest from 8:00 pm, but first the disruptive guests and then the cleaning noise 3.prevented me from doing so.
I was also unable to check in at 14:00 as planned, which caused significant inconvenience. I had an important lunch engagement that required me to prepare properly, including showering and dressing. However, because I could not check in on time, I was forced to cancel my plans.

Overall, my stay was extremely disappointing and a complete nightmare.
