Pros:

Just the bed - it was comfortable.

Cons:

There was 1 towel that was sitting on the bed - but the towel was damped.
No face cloths or hand towels anywhere so I had to ask a staff who was walking pass the room to get a towel for me. I had to ask the house keeping guy the next morning that had my room on his list for clean towels, flannels and face cloths.
So disappointing- that the basic necessities for a hotel was not inplace or available.
