Mixed Experience at This Hotel

acceptable locationsmall roomloose shower
The location was acceptable.
The room felt small because it had too much furniture. The bathroom presented challenges as there were individual hot and cold taps, not a mixer tap. The hot water was scalding. The shower wall holder was also loose.

the staff was excellent and the hotel was good, so this met my expectations.
my room felt restrictive, it was number nine. the furniture placement made it seem smaller than it really was. the bathroom needed updating because it only had separate taps with very hot or freezing water.
