Hu. Hotel
The lobby should have fresh water available all day. Many people walk the city and it would be nice to have fresh water in the lobby. Carpet in room needs to be cleaned better. There was no cold water in the shower. The hot water was so hot I couldn’t use it comfortably.

I do wish there were maybe popcorn for the movies! But over all it was a fantastic place! I also was super excited to know how close it really ...
