Pros:

Food

Cons:

We had an incident of gender based harassment.
One of the hotel staff touched my sister and wife by the lifts.
His name was Timothy.

The hotel legal representative Melisha called me and defended the perpetrator.
Denied the incident instead of managing the situation.

The hotel is not safe for female guests.
