Overall, we enjoyed staying at 9 Suite. It also runs as a coffee shop / cafe in the lobby so it has a cute woodsy rustic feel to it. The room was nice and clean, but my only gripe about this hotel is the refusal to check you in prior to 2pm.
We had flown in from the US and needless to say, we were tired after 24 hours of flying. We arrived at around 11am wanting to take a shower and rest. We were aware of the 2pm check in time so we didn’t expect our room to be ready anyway, so we left our bags there and walked around to get a SIM card for our phone and lunch. We returned at 1:30pm hoping something would be ready but the front desk said it still wasn’t. She made a “phone call” to housekeeping who said that it wasn’t 2pm yet and they were still “preparing the room.” We sat in the cafe for 30 mins and lo and behold, the second that the clock struck 2pm (there is a large digital clock on the wall by the front desk), she walked over and said our room was ready. There was no phone call made by housekeeping to inform her the room was ready, so it was obvious she was waiting until it was 2.
Not a huge deal, but just seemed kind of ridiculous that they hold to their check in time to the second (especially when we’re just just sitting there waiting for no reason).
