the staff managed to find a place that delivered pizza to us late at night after a long trip. i guess that met my expectations.

The air conditioning system was noisy all night. It was rather annoying. rooms were hot even though it was february and i couldn't adjust the temperature. my room was next to reception, and i could hear the phone ringing. breakfast was not fresh either. frankly, the location wasn't good, and i was aware before arriving.
