Satisfactory Stay at a Convenient Hotel

helpful staff clean room amazing food hot room extraction sound faulty remote
The staff was very helpful. The room was clean. I also found the food to be amazing.
The room was far too hot. I opened the window and could hear the kitchen extraction blowing. The television remote did not work half the time, and the shower was either boiling hot or freezing cold.
