adequate stay, some issues present

uncomfortable bed no towel space

the staff was friendly, i will admit. the breakfast was plentiful and well cooked.

The room was too warm. I think there was no way to adjust the temperature. the bed was very uncomfortable, and it creaked with every movement. also, there was no space to hang towels in the shower room, which i found inconvenient.
