some issues

cold roompeeling wallpaper
The room felt really cold when i arrived. It was like an icebox. a heater was provided, but it made the room too warm later. it was hard to regulate the temperature and get a good night's sleep. plus, there was peeling wallpaper in the bedroom, which wasn't very nice.

the air conditioning worked well, definitely needed.
The shower had very low water pressure. It made it difficult to rinse off shampoo. also, the ice machine on my floor was broken, a real inconvenience when i wanted a cold drink. i expect these basic amenities to be working properly, it's frustrating.
