Had a problem with the AC of the room not cooling. So we were sweaty the whole night while we are sleeping. Breakfast was supposed to be available at 6AM but they start opening at almost 8AM. You have to make your own pancake too which is why the line in the breakfast area was too long.

You could easily hear everything in the hallway/neighboring rooms. Windows wouldn't lock (my room was first floor). Breakfast was supposed to open at 6 but wasn't available until after 7.
