the location was acceptable, within a short WALK to local amenities.
I found the provided toiletries TO BE minimal. the shower pressure fluctuated unpredictably, often shifting from weak to strong streams. MOST disappointingly, the promised free wifi proved unreliable. I was unable to connect consistently .
