Heating and air conditioning8 of 2321 in 29 reviews

It was very hot and the air conditioner was adequate but would only run when we were in the room so it took a long time to cool off the room.

Only problem I had was I wish the room was a bit colder.

Bed bugs or bites1 of 232 reviews

I found bedbugs after getting bitten the first night, and when I asked to change rooms, they were fully booked, so I had to spend another night in this disgusting room.
