a somewhat lackluster experience
thin wallsbathroom hairs
my stay wasn't all sunshine and roses. the walls seemed awfully thin, i heard every little cough and conversation from the adjacent room. it was like the tv was permanently stuck on their channel. plus, finding hairs in the bathroom wasn't exactly the highlight of my trip. makes one wonder about the attention to detail in cleaning, dont it?
