The air conditioner didn't work upon check in. Apparently no one else's did either.
Window was broken and honestly the he guy was totally creepy and kept making comments about my friend leaving n being there at all like not sure why I'm allowed to have a visitor even if I'm the only one there I left at 7 am and the guy tried charging me another 100$ after I left for no reason that room was in better condition then when I showed up .... I'm very unhappy
