perfect locationsmall roomodd smell

The location suited my requirements perfectly. The breakfast was acceptable.

The room was rather small and felt outdated (the decor looked like it had not been updated since the early 2000s). I noticed an odd smell upon entering. The lighting fixture was broken and remained unfixed .
