decent locationdelayed check-inridiculous mini-bar
The location was decent enough, i suppose. it was close to some things. I can't argue with that fact.
My room. A signature harbor view room king bed, wasn't ready at the stated check-in time. i got there expecting everything to be ready. i had to wait, which messed up my schedule. then, the mini-bar situation was ridiculous, not even water was complimentary. How cheap can you get
