My room was very cold. Mini split did not work, they brought an electric heater, we had to move ir around, shower very cold, breakfast very simple, lots and lots of stairs, elevator only works from certain floor up, you still have stairs, you leave a tag at door not to be bothered, they still do your room…….they don’t have wake up call or they forgot……
