A decent experience

good locationbreakfast varietymoldy smellrattling air conditioning
The location was great, specially because it was close to the train station. i could also find many good restaurants nearby. The breakfast was also good. it had a decent variety of options.
My room had a slight moldy smell. i think the air conditioning unit rattled a bit and dripped water. It made it difficult to sleep soundly.
