7.2/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)
Walked into the room and it immediately smelt like cigarettes. The window AC unit only worked in 1 of the 4 outlets I tried and even when it was turning on I could barely feel the air even with the fan speed on high. The bed was very uncomfortable. Struggled to get to sleep and when I did I woke up multiple times in pain.
