Adequate but Disappointing

limited options high cost
The air conditioning in the room barely functioned. it made for a very uncomfortable night. i also found the breakfast overpriced for its limited options. it lacked variety and the quality didn't justify the cost. this really detracted from the overall experience. I expected better for the price i paid.
