We had a lot of issues during our stay and had to deal with management. No AC in the first room we had checked in and then the second room was dirty and my family and I had to clean the room.

We had to rent the presidential suite because it was the only room available. Coffee maker didn’t work phone didn’t work air conditioner, leaking on rug. beds were uncomfortable and the wrong size sheet that wouldn’t stay on the bed. Queen sheet on a king bed. This was our second night. The first night we had a regular room that was perfectly passable.
