a stay with some minor drawbacks

cramped roomweak shower
the room felt a bit cramped (i'm not sure if all rooms are like this). the shower pressure was also quite weak, a bit disappointing. it made washing my hair a longer task. i did notice a flickering light in the hallway, which could be a hazard.

The staff was really helpful and friendly, which I loved. My room was super clean. That really stood out! The location was great, close to many things I wanted to see.
The shower was a bit small! I also thought that the breakfast options were somewhat limited. More variety would be nice. The walls seemed thin. I heard some noise from other rooms.
