insufficient soundproofing mildew shower
The staff was helpful and the breakfast offered a good selection.
The room lacked sufficient soundproofing, i heard noise from nearby rooms throughout the night. The bathroom was not thoroughly clean. There were hairs on the floor and the shower had some mildew. I expected better attention to detail in maintaining cleanliness.
