The ac was not working properly, I paid for a colonial king which is supposed to be better than a standard room but apparently you get what you get and that’s their last decision, ok my previous stay I also parís for a colonial king and it had a new mini split unit and a much bigger tv which I was able to use to see movies with my 1 year old and watch videos and Netflix, this time I had to use my own laptop because the tv in my room only worked with cable channels which they were only about 15 of them and 3 of them being cartoons the test of them were sports or music

Too many rules, the staff is checking with guests every 5 minutes with different excuses. Also the rooms have different inconveniences. Showers don’t work, the air conditioning is old and not working at all and the rooms have dirty sheets.
