8/10 Good
"The hotel itself was excellent. It was very clean and the staff was very nice. We had a few issues with our room 318, which were probably isolated. Our hot and cold water knobs on the sink were reversed. The toilet tank filling system was installed improperly so I fixed it so that it properly filled water in the bowl of the toilet. And lastly, our door handle did not allow getting into the room easily from the outside. You could exit very easily. The room itself was very nice and the breakfast was very good. So again the overall stay was fine but it's kind of silly to have little stuff like this wrong with the room. None of which were huge issues."
