7. This caused me a real problem because the Metro refuse to replace cards that don't work meaning you basically have to pay again or try and find someone in a booth to let you in every time you want to catch the subway.

8. The main problems were that the room was kept at a really high temperature and you cannot control the heating yourself.

9. Nice hotel, good location, but mangers rude and arrogant, and they will give away your room if your flight is delayed, as we did inform them, and anyway, it was clear that everyone was having problems with the snow that weekend and sense would tell you if someone had paid for an upgraded room for a week, they would be in touch to cancel , not class as `a no show`.
