weak pressureintense climb
I must say, there were a couple things bothering me. the water pressure in the shower was weak, almost like a trickle. it took ages to rinse off soap. also, the climb to the place was intense. Lots of steps, and not easy with luggage. i was expecting better for the money i payed, it wasnt what i thought.
