The desk had sticky stuff all over it, and there was no hand soap in the bathroom. The TV and remote said Netflix and casting was offered but the tv was not hooked up to the internet. I spent 45 minutes trying to get it to connect only to find out it didnt exist. And there was a bandaid over what looked like a mini camera in the bathroom. I was just not comfortable and I will not stay there again. Thank God it was only one night.
I looked up and this was about the bathroom mirror!!

Bad room description

Advertised as a king suite. Said separate bedroom. Not true. They have no suites with a separate bedroom. The separate room happens when they add a 2 foot wall extension down one wall. Bad description. No pictures either.
