2/10 Poor

Not honest, shower problem
I left my t-shirt on the room bed, after I checked out, I contacted the receptionist for find back my t-shirt, but they said there is nothing even though I know my t-shirt is there, they are not honest. And the showering facility is so bad that I couldn’t finish washing my hair at one time, the water drains out from the shower tap by only opening for 3~5 minutes…… ridiculous
