Booked a 2 bedroom suite - ended up with adjoining rooms with no dining room (something we requested and were told we would have), "online concierge" didn't work, some special requests took days to fulfill, furniture is tired (hole in recliner), bathroom doors barely pass the toilet to close, "Corningware" dishes, drawers won't open in kitchen, missed cleaning our rooms...
