Clearly a malfunctioning toilet is acceptable.
I booked a room for my wife and daughter. Upon arrival, and check-in, they discovered a malfunctioning toilet. After reporting the issue to the staff an engineer was dispatched and reported the issue as fixed which was not the case. My wife repeatedly reported the recurring issue to the staff, to no avail. My family had to manually fill the toilet tank with water using a cup before each use in order to flush. Needless to say we will not be staying in this establishment again.

Excellent stay and the staff was super nice, attentive. The space, from breakfast to lounge to room, was nice. The location was perfect, and walkable to fabulous restaurants, farmer’s market, music, tourist spots, and shopping. Parking was very convenient with a garage right around the corner.
