pointless 5 star
my first time in a 5star (biz trip), so can't really compare but.. i d never spend that money in such place. extremely expensive for "ok" classy place.
more than once i didn't find towels in room and had to call recep. restaurant served the most expensive water without u explicitly asking for it. In my case they also mistakenly debited an extra meal that wasn t due..
keycards failed twice. Doorbell and phone didn't work
wired internet costs 20 pound a day (hello, i always had free wifi in crappy hostels!)
laundry service costed 3 times the value of my clothes (3 pound to wash a pair of crappy socks?!) plus the time to unwrap them from plastified , new-looking package. (what s the point?)
phone calls 4£ a minute..
reception staff never smiled, immigrant waiters\tress did
If i had to pay the bill I would have probably jumped off the window.. oh, btw, u can only lift it up 20cm and the aircon doesn't go any higher then 23 C°
