Liked:The in room hair dryer did not work. The front desk said that they would have one delivered to the room. An hour later we checked out without ever receiving one. My wife was not pleased that her hair was not dry. Also there was a mildew type smell in the hall that drifted into our room. The room next to our was undergoing repairs so it may have come from that room.
