1. Not dirty, but it is easy to see that they are not very concerned about having high cleaning standards (powder, dishes on the floors, badly washed glasses and towels).

9. However, the front desk removed the charge after we spoke to them (it took 2 attempts)- we generally declined housekeeping during our week-long stay, but on the one occasion that we did, the housekeeping staff did not replace all the used towels, did not leave any new soap/shampoo supplies and did not replace the dirty drinking glasses.

10. )*Hotel room: The lighting in the room is dark and dingy, the view from the window faced an apartment building, carpet in the room was a bit dirty for a 4 star hotel.
