Booked 3 rooms in March 2022 and the check-in process took longer than usual with queue more than 30 minutes. Although virtual queue was given but the waiting time is unpleasantly long. Upgraded from Mountain View to Pool view for one of my room and Pool view to Seaview room. Since we were allocated to 2nd and 3rd floor and we could not really see the "sea" view and one of the "pool" view room is blocked. Would advise to check with the staff before confirming the room. Some rooms with bathtub and some rooms without. The design of water faucet is extremely unfriendly to use especially to set the correct temperature. Hot water and cold water are separated and the hot water faucet is extremely tight. The towels are wrapped in plastic bags and the hotel room is clean. There are free live channels including sports channel and free movies in the room. My bedlinen has several holes in it. Breakfast was OK.
