mixed feelings about the stay
noisy unitworn out beds
I found the air conditioning to be quite poor. it was an old, noisy unit and did not cool the room effectively. also, the beds were not very comfortable. They felt worn out and sagged quite a bit. this made it difficult to get a good night's sleep.
