Anonymous, Jun 2016

Cons. We arrived at 6pm. After returning from dinner, we closed the windows and tried putting on the AC which didn't work. The hotel claimed I had a window open which caused the AC to turn off. Even after the hotel checked the windows, the AC still didn't work. I wanted another room but the hotel said they were fully booked. The AC wasn't repaired until 11pm. When I checked out, I complained that the room wasn't ready for me. The hotel responded the AC was working when we arrived which wasn't true.
