a minor issue was noticed, the tea and coffee selection in the room could have been slightly more varied.

The room, while clean, felt a bit dated with its decor. The television remote also seemed to have a mind of its own. Channels changed randomly. I pressed the volume button and. well, nothing happened!

faulty shower head sandpaper towels
breakfast was acceptable, it did not kill me. it featured ingredients i recognized.
the room rate seemed a tad steep, especially considering the sad state of the bathroom. the shower head sprayed water in approximately six different directions. i had to strategically position myself to get even remotely wet and the towels provided felt suspiciously like sandpaper.
