Little things can make or break a hotel stay
Bed was very comfortable. Only one chair on balcony, cigarette butts on balcony floor, obviously hadn't been swept off. Emailed owner about missing chair, heard nothing back. We ended up using a chair from the balcony next to us: if someone had been staying in that room, it wouldn't have been possible. Coffee service was practically non existent; no sign of any creamer and very little sugar. Burn hole on comforter of bed; was very noticeable. No one around to voice our concerns to. Room is very small, but that is to be expected in an older building. Attention to detail is important if you want repeat customers.
