I stayed in room 263. Room was dirty. Bathroom was terrible. Door frame rusted out would not close properly. No hot water. Curtains were torn and would not close. Room had a dusky damp Oder. There was literally nothing good about the room. Public areas were fine.

The room was okay, restaurants were good and it was nice that they were in the hotel. However in the evening there was no hot water. When we tried to call the front desk we realized the phone cord on the phone in the room was cut. I then called using my cell phone and was only able to get through to reservations. After 20 minutes of trying to get the front desk I gave up.
