basic stay with some hiccups

central locationmold patches
the location was quite central and convenient.
The room smelled strongly of mold and i noticed several mold patches in the bathroom. It really impacted my comfort. it was also pretty noisy, especially with staff chatting right outside my door.

average stay, some issues

unpleasant staff
i found the staff rather unpleasant (maybe they were having a bad day). they seemed dismissive. the cleaners did not do a great job. i found a dirty and squashed toilet roll. i would have liked a better experience.
