mixed feelings about this hotel

small elevator slanted floor
the breakfast buffet offered a good selection.
I found the elevator situation unacceptable. It only fits one person comfortably. waiting for the lift felt endless, especially with luggage. the lack of maintenance was also evident as wardrobe doors didn't shut properly. the slanted floor in my room was unsettling.
