comfy bed blackout curtains blocked drain small tv

the location was central. i found the facilities adequate for my needs (i especially liked the sauna). i appreciated the comfy bed and blackout curtains in my room.

the check-in was later than i expected. i had to wait longer than anticipated (it was a bit frustrating). the tv in my family room was very small. the drain seemed blocked in the shower.
