moldy ceilings exaggerated price
I was given a room upgrade, but it was just the same room on a higher floor. it took three hours at reception to get the room i booked. The room had nothing to do with the photos i had seen. there was mold in the room and the price of $250 a night is exaggerated for a room with moldy ceilings!?!
