The tvs in the rooms are basically useless I asked front desk they are not smart TVs can't watch Netflix or anything. No water bottles in the rooms. I mean u can include a couple of water bottles in the room and add it to the cost of staying lol. Service was poor and breakfast should be served earlier.
