location good, but the hotel.. not so much

tiny bathroom pedestrian food
the location was definitely acceptable, placing me conveniently close to the city's main attractions.
my three-night stay revealed issues.. the room felt cramped and the bathroom was tiny, reeking of drains. the limited choice and pedestrian quality of food at both dinner and breakfast did little to improve my opinion.
