Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
They do not care about the safety of their guests with food allergies. Extremely rude staff in the restaurant. The shower floor is very slippery. It is dangerous. They don't do housekeeping. Make sure you don't put your towels on the floor because you will be reusing them. They have tiny garbage cans that need to be emptied daily, but don't

Dark corridors to walk to room

The Nox was nice but the reason I deducted stars and could go lower is because I was staying by myself and the corridors are operated by sensor lighting. I found this very creepy especially as a solo female. I never saw this before I foubd it very off putting and something I never want to see again in any hotel. Please do more to make people feel safe & comfortable
