You need an elevator.
What hotel these days does not have an elevator??? We are senior citizens and had to walk to the very end of the hall with our luggage, etc. carry it all up a flight of stairs only to realize we had to walk back half of the hallway to get to our room. Needless to say it was frustrating.

This is the worst stay i have been at.
The shower didn't work, so we had to repack up and move to another room. And then the pool was freezing cold, where you couldn't be in it. When it's indoors? Instead, it's heated the breakfast they advertise sausage and eggs and stuff they didn't have any of that.
