Acceptable Stay with Disappointing Aspects

helpful staffcold bathroominadequate heating
The staff answered all queries I had.
The room was cold upon arrival. I could find no instructions for the heating system. The bathroom was freezing, a significant downside as I prefer a warm bathroom. The floor felt so cold it caused my feet to hurt.

The room's cleanliness was lacking. I found a heavily stained carpet. The shower door did not close completely. These issues detracted from the overall experience.
