Decent stay overall

clean roomgood showerplentiful supplystreet noiseold furnishingbedroom decoration
The room was quite clean. The shower was good. There was a plentiful supply of tea and coffee. I also appreciated the soft towels.
The noise from the street was noticeable (I had to keep the window open because of the weather). It felt more like a poorly decorated bedroom than a hotel room. The furnishings seemed old fashioned.
