Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately there were several problems with the room (some of which were evident when I checked in and others only once I was in the room, too late to move). I was given a room with a large and unworking hot-tub in the bedroom (with a big note on it that it did not work and that the hotel was going to take it out). The hotel did not appear full so I'm not sure why they would use the room. The lights in the bathroom did not work and there was no shampoo in the shower (bottle on the wall empty). The bed was clean and comfortable.
