mixed feelings about the stay
cigarette burns traffic noise
the room felt quite dated it reminded me of an american motel i noticed cigarette burns around the room i think they should invest in some soundproofing because the traffic noise was really disturbing i probably would not stay there again because of the noise and the dated decor
