Overpriced & rundown

I’ve been staying at this hotel for many years - but it is not what it used to be - I see two main problems: 1- the beds are old and sunken - they need to be replaced. The problem is when you complain about the bed, the front desk refuses to give you a new room. Which related to the second problem. 2-This Novotel in Paquis has a policy where once you check into a room and you are not satisfied with it - they will not move you, because it is too much work for the custodial staff. So you are stuck with the same bad room for five nights. 3 - another sign of general deterioration is the key-cards for the rooms don’t work. You have to go down twice a day to get the room card activated. Overall the front desk could more polite and accommodating

The property was great but this toilet separate from a sink is not great. We stayed in a place in Paris that was the same…not a fan. The layout of the bathroom itself could be different to allow for more counter space and the shower could maybe be part of the bathtub?
