adequate , but with issues

basic breakfastnon-functional air conditioningslow check-in
the breakfast met my basic needs.
the room lacked proper ventilation , as there was no functional air conditioning unit. there was only a fan , it barely alleviated the stuffiness. also , the check-in process was surprisingly slow , it caused an unnecessary delay.
