The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the unprofessionalism of a male worker there, who called me, telling me I should sit with him at his office. Then carried on to take my bags without my permission to his office, trying to force me there. I didn’t go and a very polite man helped to get my luggage. I didn’t feel safe.
