The ac broke and we spent one night without an ac, they didn’t have one on premises and we had to wait until next day to replace it. The fridge’s racks were missing and they didn’t bring ones that fit, we had to pile our food on top of each other to fit. Parking was horrible, they don’t have enough spots and don’t have spots for handicapped people whose I am one of them. My car got many scratches because of how close the parking spots are which makes it very difficult to get in/out your car specially if you are a handicapped person. The room is pretty small for 4 people and so were the beds. The rooms should accommodate 4 people but they have a small dining table with only 2 chairs not 4 since we booked a room for 4 with kitchenette. Housekeeping is upon request only while it was expected to be on a daily basis!
