Acceptable Stay, But Some Issues Need Addressing

small room inadequate shower curtain dust accumulation

The hotel's location proved convenient for accessing various attractions.

My room was disappointingly small, I found it difficult to move around comfortably. The shower curtain was inadequate, I noticed the bathroom floor became wet after each shower. the lack of thorough cleaning was evident, I observed dust accumulation in several areas.

a perfectly mediocre stay

stale smoke non existent noise insulation

the location proved quite useful for getting around, it's rather central.

First off, the room reeked of stale smoke, and the cleaning seemed rather... cursory. I even found a stray sock from the previous guest, tucked under the bed. the noise insulation was practically nonexistent. I could hear every conversation and cough from the neighboring rooms. and the virtual reception? let's just say it's about as helpful as a chocolate teapot.
