Close walk to downtown but lackluster

The A/C in the room didnt work, and the last night, our family of 4 was sweltering. The front desk attendant said he would let his manager know but didnt seem to bothered to do much about it. We were also on the 6th floor but the elevators only went up to 5 so we had to lug out 5 suitcases up a flight of stairs. Strange. The hotel was huge and close to walk to most everything. The breakfast buffet was the best part. My kids loved it. But overall, it was a lackluster experience.

The room my husband and I had was nice, no view, but quiet and clean. My son had a room at front of hotel which was very noisy! Breakfast was outstanding every morning. My husband got stuck in the lift on Thursday night and when he finally got out and advised reception they advised him that it happened to a member of staff and perhaps they should call out an engineer. Also perhaps put an “out of order” sign up!!!!!!
