Decent Stay, Some Disappointing Aspects

service qualityalcohol availability
The Salt and Pepper restaurant was not good. The staff did not seem motivated, and service quality was poor. I saw old food deposits on the tablemats. The lounge was also a letdown because alcohol was only available for a limited time (between 6 PM and 8 PM). This should be clearer to avoid customer disappointment.
