Bad Service

We requested an early Check In and this was not possible. Secondly at the time of the Check In One of the Rooms we had booked was not ready. The Bathroom in the Main Bedroom was Not Cleaned Properly. The Sleeper Couch was not made when we requested it to be made. The Complimentary Food was not served as promised. There were numerous Service Level Problems.
