unhelpful employee denied upgrade

the location was acceptable with many things to do around the hotel. a family mart downstairs provided convenience.

staff demeanor at check-in was not acceptable. i requested a room upgrade which i was willing to pay for, it was promptly denied. the employee suggested i contact my travel agent, this was unhelpful. it felt as if i was refused service.

i appreciated the direct access to sunshine city mall. the hotel's connection to a family mart offered convenient access to food and necessities at any hour. my room on a higher floor provided a lovely view and plenty of sunlight each day.

the air conditioning was not adjustable. i could only change the airflow, not the temperature, made regulating the room temperature difficult.

Fantastic Hotel Connected to Everything!

direct connection convenience store limousine bus

The location is AMAZING , especially because it connects directly to Sunshine Mall! This made shopping and dining super easy. There is also a Family Mart convenience store right downstairs. The airport limousine bus even stops right out front , a major plus!

The air conditioning only had low, medium, and high settings , so I couldn't set a specific temperature. It got a little too warm for my taste , even on the lowest setting.
