Clean the room and give me a refund or better points
Pros:

The location and the staff was friendly. I just didn’t like that they didn’t clean the hotel and didn’t give me a refund back. Just gave me 5000 points, which wasn’t much because someone’s underwear was found at the top of my closet and the sink was dirty

Cons:

They didn’t clean the room

Pros:

Location was fine. Pool area was nice. Most staff were nice. Just super expensive.

Cons:

Parking is absolutely ridiculous. I was over charged. Our room by the elevator was loud. Especially the elevator itself. Shower door did not close. 2 towels. I re-used 4 times.
I also found out by an angry staff member that you do not recycle. She said it was all trash. Very disappointed!😥

Pros:

The restaurant food was very good.

Cons:

Ice machine was broken on the 11th floor. Our sliding bathroom door came off track, but housekeeping must have fixed it while we were at our conference.
