I haven't encountered any sewage issues. I've stayed here 6-7 times (~100 nights overall) over the last 15 months. My last stay I had a slight issue where the shower drained slowly, but that was fixed quickly after informing the front desk.
As for the AC, I think it's just luck of the draw. Some rooms may struggle to keep the temp cool, especially the ones that face southwest. The afternoon sun and the late-day temperatures may just be too much to overcome. I've generally been getting rooms that face southeast, and the temps are fairly stable. I think lower floors might also be more prone to AC fluctuation, but I can't be sure.
