equipped kitchenette convenient location helpful staff old bathroom low water pressure noisy heating
My room included a fully equipped kitchenette I could cook easily. the location was convenient to many attractions I wanted to visit. the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. i also appreciated the laundry facilities on the premises. It was useful.
The bathroom was quite old and needed some refurbishment. the water pressure in the shower was low and made it difficult to shower. the heating system made noise. I had trouble turning the fan off, this caused cooking smells from the restaurant to enter the room.

Acceptable Stay with Issues
dated bathroom lacking housekeeping
My stay had a few issues. The bathroom felt quite dated. It needed some serious updating. I also didn't like that housekeeping wasn't automatic. I had to specifically request it. Otherwise, trash cans just stayed full.
