non-functioning light old school sachets
The hotel location proved convenient (easy access to nearby amenities).
The light over the kettle was not working. The dark walls made it hard to see. I also would have expected a Nespresso machine instead of old school sachets. The lack of a mini bar made the £50 deposit seem excessive, honestly.
