flexible check-inpersonal explanationtaxi arrangementflickering lightuncomfortable mattresssmall lamp
the landlord seemed very flexible with check-in times. he explained everything in person, even entry after the pub was closed. i also liked that the owner ordered a taxi for us, after the ceremony.
the light in my room kept flickering , very annoying. i had to keep it off and use a small lamp. the mattress was also very uncomfortable , it felt cheap and lumpy.
