there were a couple of issues with my stay, I wrote about it send an email to management, but I have not received an answer as of today. The bed that I slept had broken springs, so it had a soft spot in the middle, the bathtub refinished was peeling off, the A.C.vents were missing so the air was not flowing towards the beds

The only issue we had was a bathroom. The bathtub was damaged, the colors were peeling off (you wouldn’t see such things even in the cheapest motel), it wasn’t well cleaned and had some hairs. The rest was okay. The room was clean, the staff was nice. It would be nice if some water would be available in the room, as it is a standard practice everywhere, but it was not available in our room. Thank you.
