Adequate Stay with Some Issues

loose window pane threadbare carpeting
The staff were quite friendly and helpful .
The room I was assigned (I stayed in a Single Room Shower) was rather disappointing. The window pane seemed loose, as if it could fall out upon opening, and I had to try to fix it myself (a rather unpleasant surprise). The floor leading to my room looked old and dirty, with threadbare carpeting, not very appealing.

The room had a little table and chairs! It overlooked the high street, which I loved. The hotel was very tidy, clean, and well stocked on coffee.
The shower had very poor pressure. The temperature was rubbish too. The toilet seat moved every time I sat on it. It was very loose
