Acceptable stay, a bit disappointing though

perfect locationdrain smelluncleaned tables
The location was perfect, just a few minutes walk to main tourist attractions.
Our room smelled of drains. IT was quite unpleasant. There were no water or any amenities in the room. This was unexpected. The breakfast was nice, but the tables were not cleaned after previous people.
