Anna at reception was quite defensive and lacked customer service skills and communication skills, telling me that my concerns were not something she could do anything about since she just works in reception! I told her that she is the representative of the hotel and should therefore relay my concerns to the management. The entire layout of the hotel is bizarre, inconvenient, and unsafe, particularly for older guests, of which there are many. In fact, I would say the majority of the guests are 60 or 65+. The reception area is like a small island surrounded by steps, which is absolutely ridiculous and should not be allowed in this day and age. On my floor (2nd floor), there was a whole corridor of rooms at one end that are only accessible by going up/down seven steps and no other way for those guests to reach their room or get to the elevator! This may also be the case on other floors and simply should not be allowed for reasons of accessibility. I found an elderly lady struggling to bring her big heavy suitcase down those steps to get to the elevator so helped her, but the design of the hotel is absolutely unacceptable. Furthermore, in my room, the phone was not working and then I found that it was not even plugged in and no one had checked this. A technician came to fix it and also to raise a large and heavy ceramic lamp that was hanging directly over the phone and which hit me on the head! The sink is in the room, instead of in the bathroom, which is also ridiculous.
