The bed was lumpy and old, the coffee maker didn't work for two days after reporting it two times, two lights didn't work in the room, the tissue ran out and never replaced, the cleaning staff slid a piece of paper under the door on two days at 7:15 AM stating they weren't going to clean the room and the cleaning staff woke me up at 6:45 on 3 days because they were so loud in the hallway.
