the room felt a bit tired. the carpet seemed worn in spots. plus, the breakfast felt pretty basic for a four-star place it could have been better, honestly, it was underwhelming. the lift was also out of order, a bit annoying.

defective elevatorsoaked carpet
The elevator barely worked during my entire stay! it was especially inconvenient on the last day. our room looked quite worn. the carpet seemed dingy and a section was completely soaked. taking a bath proved impossible unless i planned to spend an hour filling the tub. Something was wrong with the water pressure.
