Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The first night, we turned off the motion sensor light switch, but it kept turning back on by itself. Every time we moved in the bed, the light came on, so we had to keep getting up to turn it off. My husband and I couldn’t sleep at all. The second night, the shower water kept getting cold, so I couldn’t even finish washing my hair. Overall, the stay was quite uncomfortable because of these problems. However, the staff were very nice and made an effort to address the issues.
