Just okay

Definitely could use some work. The air conditioner was not working when we arrived. We called down and were told someone would be right there. We called back about 10 mins later requesting a room change and were told to call back later. Maintenance eventually arrived and had to exchange the entire unit. The sink in the bathroom did not drain well so you had to keep turning the water on to flush the toothpaste down the drain. The vanity needed a good dusting at the base as did the door. The balcony was full of cobwebs and needed a good sweep. All in all not really worth the cost for one night. On a positive note, the breakfast was delicious. Plenty of variety and tasty.
