Very clean room. But no coffee pot in the room! You have to ask for it and carry it all to your room yourself. What? Who wants to go downstairs just for a cup of coffee??? Game changer for sure.

There wasn't a coffee pot in the room. Could have sworn it said there would be one. Also, no TV guide to know what channels are available.
