The checkin procedures for obtaining the hard key were cumbersome and the cell based e key didn't work for any of us on the first day. The hallways and my room didn't appear clean; they could have used a good vacuuming; most of the light bulbs in my room on the chandelier either didn't light or they flickered. Overall attention to the facility was lacking.
