Felt a little uncomfortable during check-in. It seems there are first-class and second-class guests. Hopefully, the hotel will issue clear guidelines to the registration counter; every guest who arrives first must be served according to the concept of 'first come, first serve'. After all, we paid to stay in this hotel just like other guests.

There is a very strong smell of cigarettes in the bedroom. The bathroom is outdated, and the shower is non-functional. Additionally, there are visible stains on the bedsheets and curtains. The television does not work, and there were strange loud noises throughout the night that made it impossible to sleep.
