creaking door heavy chair
the breakfast was acceptable.
The bedroom door creaked loudly. Each time it opened to use the bathroom during the night, it woke my partner. i also found it frustrating there was nowhere to sit in front of a mirror to dry hair. only one chair was available, but it was too heavy to move. i expected better for the price.
