reasonable selectionawful air conditioningnon-working usb ports
the breakfast was adequate and had a reasonable selection of items.
The air conditioning was definitely not up to par (it seemed like a sauna in there). i reported this to reception, but no one ever came to check it out. also, the room cleaning wasn't great. There were crumbs on the floor when i arrived. the usb ports in the room didn't work either, pretty inconvenient.
