Acceptable Stay with Some Disappointments

generous breakfastroom maintenancestained sofa
The breakfast was generous and a la carte, which I appreciated.
The room had maintenance issues, disappointing. The shower temperature tap fell off, and a screw was on the floor from a loose door knob. The sofa also had scratches and stains. I felt the money was not put in the right places.
