slow check-inwrong room
the check in was a disaster. i got my room at 8 pm after arriving at 2 pm. i booked a quiet room months prior but instead got a superior room not matching my request. there was nothing superior about the room except the size so i requested a downgrade. the staff at the bars were amazing though.
