The staff was helpful. A staff member provided a map with marked sights. They also gave us bus routes. I found this useful, it helped us maximize our time. I am very grateful for the amazing experience.
The air conditioning was not very powerful. It was difficult to adjust, so the room sometimes felt stuffy. It was a minor inconvenience but definitely worth mentioning.
