broken ac subpar room
the location was good , with many shopping and dining options nearby.
the classic king room felt subpar , especially given the hotel's description as "luxury". the closet light stayed on all night , because the door didn't close completely. also , the ac didn't work properly , so the room was warmer than outside.
