Furniture out of date

So far so good, quite on a nice area, and near airport, how ever, beds and furniture are outdated, a/c didn’t get cold enough. But I guess that’s what we get for the price.

The attendant gave me a room that was occupied and then was fixed with another room. Then at 2am another family tried getting into my room and woke me up. They thought the room wasn't occupied
