Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I was upset with paying over $200 and the air would not work properly. I turned the air down to 50 degrees and the temperature was still 77 degrees in the room. Because of this I could not sleep. The maintenance man claimed the hotel used a boiler and chiller and thats why it didnt work good. Its funny that a hospital has both and you can make the temperature be what suits you. I will never go back and I want my money back.
