Underwhelming Stay. Some Issues Noted

loose shower controlscheap pillows
The bathroom was a definite letdown. The towel rail detached from the wall, and the shower controls felt rather loose. The sink fitting was peculiar, resembling a kitchen faucet , made basic tasks difficult. I could not drink from it easily. The bedsheets felt quite basic, and the small, cheap pillows certainly need upgrading. It is a pity, especially considering the price.
