convenient locationnon-functioning lightold 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.
