Windows are filthy, must not have been cleaned in years. Dust on surfaces in the room. Parkade stair he’d loose gravel, also not cleaned in years. No room service, only from neighbouring moxies for a fee. Difficult to order from moxies. They would not take a phone call and all had to be ordered on line on a Poorly designed website.

I had missing toiletries the next day after room service same ones were missing (shampoo) i asked they seemed surprised but that was un usual, the tv doesn’t work for movie casting if you have an iphone am pretty common with tv casting but yep this one didn’t work i think cz also the internet didn’t connect but i have 5G unlimited so yay me! And going to the pool feels like treasure hunt you have to take a certain elevator to a certain Level pass by the hotel laundry through a hallway left and right then wow the pool! Not wow but okay
