Meeting · 20 guests
The service staff assigned to my room was top notch and attentive. They were very responsive via WhatsApp to any needs I had during the day.
Lots of noise from caterers who use the deck outside as a passageway between the kitchen and the main hall. I had to inform the staff who tried to have the caterers keep their noise down, but it happened several times over two days. Loud catering carts rolling, carts of glassware clinking, it was quite distracting.
Also, the time to show up and where to show up in the morning to gain entry was not well documented and confusing to my guests. The main doors were supposed to be open at 08.00 and they were late to open (by almost 15 minutes) one day.
