The staff on the night of January 2nd truly needs more hospitality and tourism training. The treatment and the difficulties we encountered during check-in were awful. The check-out process went smoothly, but it was handled by a different employee., The breakfast needed more variety, but the place was clean. You can hear everything from room to room, and the bathroom wasn't very clean. To be honest, my check-in experience was awful. I've never had anything like that happen before, and I've stayed in thousands of hotels.

The room’s furnace was not on, as we entered the room we were greeted by a freezing cold room during our winter stay. I turned on the furnace, which helped to warm up the room, how ever the thermostat was not working properly or something was wrong that the heat didn’t stop at 72 it kept climbing up making the room too hot. Throughout the night I had to get up to turn off the heat since it was too hot, and then turning it on since the room was freezing ( by the furnace/ ac vent there was cold air coming in). Our plan was to come a day before our flight and have a relaxed and restful night before our trip the next day. However this was not the case!
