Room booked was not as advertised. Safe was broken and had to wait to get it fixed. AC did not work in the room. The sink and shower did not drain properly. The toilet stopped flushing, we let front desk know before we went for dinner and they said it would be fixed. When we got back, nothing was done and the person at the front seat did not know anything. There was a bug in the bed. We asked for a refund and was going to book another hotel and they wouldn’t refund us. Did not compensate for anything. Not worth the money to stay there and would not suggest this hotel to anyone.
