we were unaware that our room had NO Windows! clean room but oddly shaped. very small closet, nice bathroom, full size bed, but just odd there was no windows, and no warning our room had no windows. when we called the front desk they informed us they were all sold out and could not accommodate us with another room. nor offered any other compensation for NO communication that we'd be, what we gathered, our room was a converted broom closet before made into a room.
