4/10 Fair

This review is from an American point of view. I gave two star only because the manager on duty tried her best but still problem was not resolved. First of all the reception are not friendly nor the breakfast crew. It’s October weather in 70s and the hotel turns on the heater saying the rooms have no control of it and we have heater running throughout the hotel since we are in winter now. I’m telling you 3 days we didn’t sleep my kids slept in there underwear we even had to open the window on 10th floor. It was horrible and uncomfortable and they wouldn’t refund us since we booked on hotels.com . We asked for milk for my 2 year old they said they didn’t get milk supply in!?! I mean don’t you have local grocery stores that u can grab some for the day and night. Overall we tried to check out and i wish i stayed with my original hotel that i usually go to (crown plaza Florya) - i don’t suggest this place at all- sorry
