Room #15. Multiple times key code didn’t initially work to enter room as well as front door to the hotel. Bathroom was freezing never warmed up. Multiple bins from restaurant right outside room windows meant an early wake up call from the garbage truck. Had a personal item missing after valet. Staff denied of course, manager apologized and thanked me for bringing items to her attention.
