Acceptable Stay with Noticeable Shortcomings

good transitsmall bathroomflickering light
The location was acceptable as it was not far from public transit.
I found the bathroom quite small. This made moving around difficult. A light in the bathroom flickered constantly, very distracting and bothersome. The toilet also presented issues with flushing, I needed to flush multiple times sometimes.
