The check-in was a mess. i asked for an early check-in and was told i would pay for another day. imagine my surprise when i arrived at 3:30 pm and my room wasn't ready. there were many others waiting too. A real scramble for rooms happened. i had to wait an additional 20 minutes. for my room. this was definitely not the best start to my stay.
