Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel was ok, staff friendly but the water fountain was out of order with no sign indicating that. While the room was clean there was an unpleasant odor. As I looked around I noticed what appeared to be black mold in the slots of the ac/heating unit. You can see it in the photos I uploaded.

StolenBeats Headphones

When we checked-out, we inadvertently left a black zipper case containing my wife's Beats Headphones. We immediately called the hotel, and they asked housekeeping if the headphones turned up. They said no. That is impossible. We know exactly where the headphones were. My wife thought I picked them up. I thought she picked them up. Unfortunately, neither us picked them up. They were sitting on the desk. Clearly, the housekeeping staff took the headphones, kept them and lied about it. Those headphones were a gift from our daughter a month before. We are flabbergasted by the outrageous lies and deceit of the staff. We really would like the headphones back or to be reimbursed for the theft. The attached picture shows what the case looks like. I have the same headphones, and the picture is of my case.
