This hotel was very nice however they have one elevator that was working for 36 floors. We constantly had to wait for the elevator and sometimes we waited so long that we decided to take the stairs and walk down 14 flights, we ended up doing this 3 times. This was incredibly inconvenient! When the elevator was working, it stopped on every single floor as we went down. We were there from Wednesday to Sunday, it was very frustrating!
