underwhelming stay
cramped room sputtering showerhead
the location was decent, i suppose. it got me where i needed to be.
The room i was in, a double room, felt more like a storage closet. it was surprisingly cramped. the bathroom looked like it was straight out of the '70s. The showerhead sputtered more than it sprayed. and the wi-fi? forget about it, more like dial-up speed.
