Disliked: Room comfort
I booked the room for my sister who is sick. She said the TV is not working and the toiletries given to her seemed like leftovers from other people. the front desk seemed lack of sensitivity. She asked my sister if her check out day was that day when she should know it supposed to be the day after.
