Acceptable Stay, but Some Issues Observed

The front desk staff was friendly at check-in.
My bathroom emitted a sewage odor each time I used the sink. It was very unpleasant, especially while brushing my teeth. The water temperature in the shower was also erratic, fluctuating from cold to very hot without warning. I experienced a burn when the water became hot suddenly.
