Acceptable Stay With a Few Issues

good parkingbroken fanstrange smell

The car parking was good, as was the location.

My room lacked air conditioning. I had a fan, it was broken because I couldn't direct it. The room also had an odd smell, like dampness mixed with carpet. I wouldn't choose this accommodation again until they update it.
