Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

central locationuninterested staffexpensive parking fee

The hotel is in a central location close to shops.

I booked a room with a city view but it faced a wall. The staff seemed uninterested during both check-in and check-out. They were not very cute. The parking fee was also very expensive.
