TL;DR
Building 34 is older but livable. Building K offers spacious family suites up to 120 sqm with two rooms and pool view. You can request a room change at check-in if needed.
Buildings 1 and 6 have family rooms in several configurations: large studio-style rooms with 4 beds, two-room units with a single window (one room has no window), and two-room units facing two directions. Corner rooms are slightly more spacious and comfortably fit 4 beds with room to spare.
A family arrived in the morning and checked in by 1pm. They requested building D but it was full — they were assigned building K, third floor (no elevator). The room exceeded expectations: Family 2 Bedrooms with Pool View, 120 sqm, two separate rooms each with TV, toilet and shower, plus two balconies.
Building 34 has a bad reputation online but is actually livable. Rooms are older and unrenovated, with some wear in the bathrooms, but fine if you're only sleeping there. A room upgrade can sometimes be obtained at check-in without extra payment — just ask.
After being moved from room 6118 to room 4111, the location improved significantly. However, linen issues were noted: bedding can arrive dirty, and when beds are pushed together, fresh sheets for the combined bed aren't always provided automatically. Worth checking with staff right away.
