falling curtainsdirty toilets
The room was quite disappointing. Curtains were falling down (it was annoying) and did not fully close. The basement bar had a lot of potential, but it was messy. I saw things lying around. Toilets were also dirty and moldy. The hotel also wasn't that serious, because they did not notify me of any emergency wall numbers.
