Animal Crossing New Horizon Happy Home Paradise Review Cons:

You cannot access your tools when on the island.
Seems overly generous with letting you satisfy the client. (phrasing)
The music is not the best especially if you are using musical furniture.
Forces you to stop to take breaks.
After choosing a client you always have to do the sit down with Lottie and then show them the house.
The cycle gets quite repetitive.
Early on you can just walk into the new job and open the delivered items and get the job finished and paid, no effort needed.
No new Nook miles rewards.
