Old, outdated ac unit, refrigerator and microwave. No cleaning service unless asked for it the night before. Two dining chairs completed the seating arrangement which was uncomfortable. Metal bed frame which was noisy. Heard strange noises at night. Room not adequately secured with a double lock. I won't be staying there again.
