Acceptable Stay with Some Disappointments

competent staffhousekeeping issue
The staff seemed competent , attending to basic requests without issue.
The housekeeping service was noticeably deficient. They made the bed, yet did not replenish coffee supplies, which I find unacceptable in a hotel of this supposed caliber.
