Not Living Up to its Full Potential

We loved the look and feel of the room. However, the aircon was only blowing cold air even with the temperature set on hot. The air freshener in the hallway floor takes away from the Hotel's aesthetics. The staff could also being a lot friendlier than they are, no smile from the front desk to the kitchen.

It's one of the best hotels I've stayed in, the fact that it next to a mall makes it more convinient. It was a 10/10 for me.
