1. Our room was comfortable and the sheets were super soft and smelled like downy.

2. However, there was only a very faint smell in the room itself, and after management sent up a maid with more Febreze, it was totally gone.

4. Obviously we couldn't stay in the room if we couldn't even speak to eachother, so we exchanged to another room- this one had been heavily smoked in and reeked of cigarettes- so we packed our stuff again and headed to another room, smelling of fresh paint, which we thought we could put up with at first, it also had 2 double beds when we booked a single king.
