Never again, uncaring staff

We had a room with a jetted tub, one of the adjustment handles was missing and the motor sounded horroble, no pressure. Breakfast, pancake machine was broke, sausages looked boiled, no muffins or pastries. Brpught to manager attention and no real response or compensation offered. We are up there every 3 weeks and will never stay there again.
