Balanced Experience

ideal locationmodern facilitiesclean bed linennarrow toilet paperhigh tap pressurelacking detail
The location is ideal in the middle of town. The room had modern facilities (that I used). The beds had fresh clean linen.
The toilet paper was very narrow and thin. I thought it required a number of sheets to be useful. The bathroom tap pressure needs reducing, it could cause soaking on first use. The hotel seemed to lack attention to detail.
