Reception staff do not know about abbreviated naming. ie William is shorten to Bill, Cathy is short for Catherine, Fred is short for Frederick, Matt is short for Matthew etc... Jenifer on reception could be more polite in stead of angry when a customer tries to explain this to her.

Friendly check in staff. Best of all: the room lighting distribution and switches. Not a fan of doorless showers but manageable not to spill water over the whole bathroom. Kind staff at the restaurant.
