okay stay, some issues

faulty air cooling systempoor soundproofing
the air cooling system didn't really work. it seemed like a regular fan. also, the rooms weren't soundproofed very well. i could hear a lot of noise from outside. i also thought the accor website advertised an iron in the room. it turned out there was just an ironing room. this seemed like false advertising to me. i expect more for the price.
