Nice hotel but other guests ruined the stay

Staff was wonderful at check in. Room was nice but hotel was booked with a lot of young kids mostly girls for a softball tournament in the area. They were running everywhere and they were all very rude. Really couldn’t put up with all the chaos.

Liked: Cleanliness
My room shower wouldn’t turn on. Called front desk and spoke to Sandy at 6am. She put in a request for maintenance that was that. I asked to have my room moved she told me she couldn’t accommodate that’s request. An hour go by I call again to see if there was any update on when someone would come out to fix it she stated maintenance wasn’t in and said she was unsure when they’ll be in. Maintenance didn’t get to the room until 8am. He comes to try and fix the problem but couldn’t so as he proceeded to leave I asked once again for my room to get changed as I was running late for work. He said he’ll tell sandy. He somehow manage to fulfil the request that I initially requested. All I wanted was a simple room change so to the shower not working and it took 2 hours until maintenance came to get what I needed.
