adequate stay , some minor issues
good locationclean roomtea trayrundown stepsgarbage binsslippery bathtub
the location was very good , right in the center of everything. the room i had was clean and well presented. a basic tea tray was available , along with toiletries.
the metal steps to reach my room looked a bit rundown. i noticed garbage and recycling bins near the steps , they could be located elsewhere. the bathtub lacked a mat , it felt unsafe because it was very slippery.
