Acceptable experience
helpful staffconvenient locationkind serviceunclean tilesmissing bulbmalfunctioning remote
The staff was nice. They even mailed back my charger after I left it behind. The location proved convenient. I found everything I needed close by.
The bathroom tiles needed better cleaning around the bath. One bedside lamp did not have a bulb. The remote barely worked. I could only change channels with it.
