On first day check in, I get room #231, but my roommate and I smell the abnormal gas, I was wondering it’s gas or the bad smell from the pipes. Finally we reported to the front desk and the lady moved us to another room downstairs but the view is not that beautiful! Besides, the next day we found our used glasses weren’t clean and still on the originally places. After all, the front desk staffs and the cleaning ladies were nice and polite.
