minor inconveniences

poor ventilationbathroom mold
i found some aspects of my stay disappointing. the ventilation in the room was quite poor and the room felt too warm.. this caused condensation on all surfaces. the mirrors were unusable because of moisture, and i even noticed some mold in the bathroom. it was not a pleasant experience.
