dated decor broken air conditioning

The room provided lacked basic amenities. There was no tea or coffee making facilities available. the air conditioning unit was not functional, which caused considerable discomfort . the decor was quite dated, giving the room an uninviting feel, and this did not meet the expected standard.

The location was fantastic with easy access to various points of interest within walking distance. Staff members were friendly (always smiling!) and provided a place to store luggage before check-in and after check-out. I really appreciated that.

I noticed that the soundproofing could be improved. I could hear some noise from outside and other rooms (it was a bit annoying at times).
