Service Hiccups and Tired Décor

water damageunhelpful staff
The hotel showed some wear. I noticed clear signs of water damage, and the windows were unfortunately quite dirty, practically defeating the purpose of having large windows. We specifically requested a setup with one double bed and three single beds, but this wasn't arranged correctly. Instead, we got two double beds. the reception staff didn't seem very interested in helping us, opting instead to give excuses when we needed assistance.

The staff was cooperative and I received a suite upgrade, satisfactory.
The lack of plates and cutlery in the room was an issue, especially since there was a microwave. It was inconvenient that I found no cloth to wipe the table. Easy fixes are needed to address this.
