adequate stay WITH some shortcomings

cramped room small sink

I FOUND the room to be quite cramped. The bathroom sink was excessively small. I also expectED daily bed-making and bathroom cleaning. this SERVICE was not provided . The bed's position against the wall further restricted movement in the already small room.

Perfect Hospitality!
