A mixed experience at this hotel

limited optionsunstable floor
The breakfast lacked variety. There were very few options available. The floor in my room felt a bit unstable. It seemed old and uneven. the glass shield in the bathroom was not effective, water leaked out making the entire area wet. it was an inconvenience.
