A little complaint about your blanket,I want to say a little about the blanket in the hotel should be changed to a thicker one, I feel uncomfortable when wearing the blanket, it makes my body feel itchy and there is a little dust on the blanket, and I have to open the blanket, for me everything else is very okay except the blanket, thank you, I hope you can fix it and change the type of your blanket, I will come here again💙

The location is great, but there are a few areas that need improvement: the curtains have mould, the blankets provided are loose wool covers that feel unclean, and the air conditioning was not working on the last night.
