intrusive staff lack of privacy
the location is convenient.. it is central to many attractions.
I found the staff to be overly present. they contacted me every evening with insistent knocks. during one instance, i was showering, and they persisted until entering the room to leave sweets. Such intrusiveness is not expected.

The decor is curated beautifully. The location is great (i could easily walk everywhere). The staff were very attentive and polite.
The finnish sauna was super small. It has space for only two people. The thai restaurant was a little disappointing (i expected more). It had very little choice on the menu, and the food quality was mediocre.
