Failed to be advised the property is closing. TV/Internet did not function properly. The furniture was damaged. The appliances in kitchen were damaged. The keyless entry from the courtyard did not function. Maintenance never showed up after requesting. The hot water was Luke warm at best. Bugs in the room, dead but albeit they were present. We attempted to find another hotel but all were booked due to holiday. The heat would not regulate and the room stayed icy cold. Very disappointed in the conditions verses the advertisement.
