the room lacked a fan despite the warm weather, so it was uncomfortable. housekeeping only visited once during my four-night stay, inconvenient. the courtyard was noisy late into the night and early in the morning due to staff activity.

Mixed feelings about my stay.

worn furniture noisy courtyard
I found the room needing some attention. The furniture looked quite worn. A fan was definitely needed because the room was too hot. The courtyard became really noisy late into the night, then early morning noises started up. Sleep was difficult.
