Tv didn't work. Staff didn't care

the location was good for getting around. it was pretty central and easy enough to walk places.
the television in the room didn't work during my whole stay. i told the staff, but nothing was done to fix it. i found this pretty annoying, because i wanted to watch tv at night.
