some issues with sound and breakfast
helpful hostthin wallsworn towels
the host met me at the door. he even offered help with my luggage.
The room felt too small and just wasn't practical at all. The towels were old and frayed. i could hear people talking and watching tv in other rooms late. It was irritating. the breakfast was, frankly, bad.
