the location proved central to my needs.
honestly, the room reeked a bit like old gym socks mixed with desperation, quite the aroma. the heater seemed to have a personal vendetta against warmth, resulting in a rather brisk stay. and to top it off, the shower played a thrilling game of hot or scalding, leaving me with a mild sunburn.

The pillows were thin. I found it difficult to get comfortable. I think thicker pillows would greatly improve the sleep quality.
