broken lampsdisruptive road
The room seemed clean at first glance! but I soon noticed the bedside lamps were completely broken, hanging precariously from the wall. It seemed like a serious safety hazard. I also found the noise from the nearby road to be disruptive. Sleep was difficult. Even with earplugs, constant traffic hummed all night. The staff didn't seem too concerned when I mentioned it at checkout.

the staff was very friendly and helpful. the hotel was clean and tidy. i caught an early flight and the hotel provided a breakfast i could take before i left.
i stayed for three nights and had to move rooms because the shower was not draining. the new room's shower drained even less. the tv remote was filthy and the mirrors were dusty.

adequate stay, but some issues noted

good showerworn roomunhygienic biscuits
the shower was good.
Dinner was not an option as the kitchen closed early (at 4:30 pm). the room seemed worn. I noticed holes in the wall that needed repair. the biscuits were provided loose in a bag, which didn't seem very hygienic to me.

the staff was friendly and helpful . the room was clean and well appointed with lovely toiletries. i also found homemade cookies in the room, a thoughtful touch that i appreciated.
the bedroom window did not open, made the room warm at night. i understand the safety concerns, but a slight opening would have been beneficial.
