5. Check your room before accepting it, as 3/4 of our group had to change rooms due to the location or mold in the bathroom.

6. They had red lights probably so you couldn't see all the stains (yes blood and other mysterious stains) on the curtains, walls, sheets and towels, the dark musty / moldy smelling rooms were so depressing we couldn't believe it, after 1 night of loud music till 4am and numerous complaints they moved us to other building/room and it was definately in a better location wasn't as loud, but same dark musty/moldy, stains and at 3am we had hotel staff that walked in our room without knocking he said he didn't have anyone checked into the room.
