Acceptable, but with Drawbacks

free parkingdefective remote
Free on-site parking existed. My room included complimentary tea and coffee sachets.
I observed the room was smaller than pictures showed. It also lacked a bedside lamp, which I needed for reading. The television remote required replacement, so operating it became irritating.
