Don't book here!

We checked in , went to our room. The room was very hot and stuffy. We waited for an hour after adjusting the thermostat to 72°F. We turned on tge TV and we didn't have a internet connection or TV channels. We had to use our own streaming service from our account at our home to watch tv in our room. We were still hot and uncomfortable in our room. We called front desk for assistance with the AC. A gentleman from the front desk came to our room to reset the AC. We waited another 30 minutes for the temperature to get cooler, never happened... We were transfered to another room per my request, the handicapped room was cool and the AC worked. The TV did not work in our new room and we had to sign in to our home streaming service to watch the TV. Also, very limited front desk personnel, we were stuck in the entrance vestibule waiting to be buzzed in to lobby. I will never stay there again..
