small shower cellbad breakfast
I was initially pleased with the hotel's waterfront location. The room seemed spacious enough. I felt less happy when I discovered the shower cell was far too small. A person of my height found it difficult to even bend to wash my legs. The breakfast was not good, the coffee tasted like water. I left with a feeling of disillusionment.
