Needs improvement

Hotel under construction. Staff was friendly and helpful but amenities need attention to detail. Room was clean but coffee maker wasn't working/no ingredients to brew available, in room safe didn't work properly, too cold in the room asked for extra sheets but didn't help much, couldn't adjust thermostat to comfortable temperature, toilet wouldn't flush, not enough electric outlets to connect things, some vending machines were sold out or took no change. The only plus enjoyable was pool.
