TL;DR
Don't wait for repairs — go straight to reception and ask for a room change if AC or appliance issues aren't fixed quickly.
If the AC breaks repeatedly and repairs (even with an engineer visit) don't help, ask reception for a different room right away — hotels usually swap it without issue.
In Deluxe category rooms, everything (fridge, safe) usually works fine — the main complaint is a noisy AC unit that can disturb sleep.
Minor issues like a leaking shower faucet are usually fixed fast — maintenance typically comes the next day after you report it and finishes within 30 minutes.
Sometimes staff just swap working appliances from the neighboring room instead of properly fixing yours, leaving you with the broken one — if it drags on for a couple of days, insist on a room change instead of accepting more promises.
