They need to offer cleaning when stating for more than 2 days. And they need to work on the breakfast, the don't replenish food. Some people rent based on the options available like breakfast for a reason, work etc.The air condition in one of the rooms did not work and when we asked for extra towels they said they would take them to the room and they didn't.
