The bathroom in my room #416 was terrible. There was soooo much caulking around the bottom of the tub it looked it was holding it in place. The shower head was barely holding on and the water pressure was even worse. The hotel really needs some updating. The carpet in my room was heavily stained which I'm guessing was with coffee because of whr the stains were.

The lock on our door needed maintenance and instead of immediately asking for the maintenance engineer to come and check it, the front desk staff had us change our keys twice. Very inconvenient!
