Beautiful hotel

Liked: Interior is amazing it was quiet at night and clean
Disliked: When someone was watching TV I could hear every single word through the ventilation in the bathroom (rm 3) Also there was a confusion when the member of staff while we were having breakfast said that we have to pay for 1 person for the breakfast while we booked the rate for 2 with breakfast included, the member of staff bring the bill without checking with the reception.. I asked to check with the receptionist and the lady never apologised for the confusion. It was unprofessional.
