The worst that can happen is when you wake up in the morning and you don't have hot water. This is the most basic need and if the hotel is unable to provide this then to be it's a failure. After I complained an engineer came to the room and saw the issue and after I returned to my room later the problem was still there.

Excellent welcome at reception, spacious rooms, high quality amenities. The breakfast was a BIG disappointment. It is priced as higher-end 5* hotels, but with limited choice of items, questionable freshness of food and slowness in serving even coffee and tea. Not to be repeated!
