middling stay and some problems

wet carpet small room

the location was alright, it was easy enough to get to the metro.

the room i had was small, this made it hard to move around. the air conditioning dripped water onto the floor near the bed, the wet carpet was not good. the staff never replaced the coffee and tea, it was disappointing.
