Mixed feelings about this stay
chipped door hallway noise
The location of the hotel was acceptable.
The room was not soundproofed. I could hear other guests in the hallway at all hours. Maintenance is needed. The glass bathroom door was chipped and did not close properly. I found these issues distracting.

Some issues .
non-working air conditioning safety hazard
The air conditioning was not working correctly . It took hours to try to resolve the issue. The staff did NOT offer fans or other solutions, so I had to endure the heat. It was quite unplesant (understatement!). a sharp nail protruded from the floor behind the main door and that was a REAL safety hazard.
