adequate stay

comfy bedsergonomic pillowloud noise
The beds were comfy. Proper quilts provided adequate warmth and coverage. the pillows were ergonomic and slim. multiple pillows were available who prefer thicker pillows.
i heard a barking dog in a nearby room. It was disruptive. i could also hear loud noises from rooms above mine. This was particularly noticeable in the early morning.

convenient locationstreet noisemusty smell
The location was acceptable. It was close to several attractions.
The noise was pretty bad, actually. i could hear everything from the street below. It sounded like i was sleeping right on top of the road. the room looked old and tired. The photos online definitely do not match reality. the musty smell wasn't very cute either.
