Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

great shower productsroad noise
The room included great shower products, which I appreciated.
The room faced a very busy road and was subject to noise. I could hear the constant sound of traffic (including emergency vehicles) all night. It was hard to relax.

the breakfast was acceptable, with a variety of options available.
i was annoyed the room's temperature was difficult to regulate. the radiator seemed to have a mind of its own. also, finding an available parking spot was a constant struggle (quite frustrating considering i was paying for the privilege).
