And thankfully, they've replaced the lounge toaster at last! The old one was a death trap
Took me two days to work out how to get out of the hotel without getting lost. Room service is now a game of roulette guessing which kitchen the food is served from (one of them is also be refurbished).
I suspect you are right about the desks. The new rooms they do have do not have desks but also because the TV is fastened to the wall you can't get to the HDMI ports to plug your laptop in either.
