underwhelming experience

poor internet stomach issue
the location and the view were acceptable.
the rooms are not what i expected for a 5-star place (they seemed more like 3-star quality to me). the internet was unreliable, and i ended up with a stomach issue. initially, we got a room filled with cooking odors from a nearby restaurant and it was hard to stay there. (at least, they changed it without much fuss.)

amazing stay with very nice views

free restaurants delicious options wonderful views
i found everything to be quite nice here. the restaurants are all free, and i thought many of them had delicious options. the hotel boasts wonderful views (a real treat!).
i found the distances to be quite long, especially when i stayed in one of the last rooms of accommodation building 5. this made for a walk of more than fifteen minutes to the lobby building.

the food was quite basic. there was no variety and it tasted very bland. i was expecting a higher standard of cuisine from a supposedly high-end hotel. additionally, the check-in process was slow. it took an excessive amount of time to receive my room key. this was very inconvenient after a long journey.
