The secondary room in our suite had no airflow. It was freezing in that room and the main room was unbearably hot since we had to force the warm air through the open door. It defeated the point of having a private room when we couldn’t keep the door close due to the lack of heat. The pool was also under renovation which sucked since we only booked it during winter for the indoor pool usage. They didn’t tell us it was under construction until a few days prior.
