the breakfast was lovely. i guess that's something.

The room reeked of stale cigarettes. the lingering smell made it hard to relax. I'm pretty sure i could taste it. plus, the curtains barely blocked out any light.

The staff were really friendly. They were always smiling. my room was clean, and it was nice and warm, too. the location was handy as it was close to shops.

i had some issues with the noise levels, particularly late at night, though i brought earplugs and it helped. the bathroom was a bit small, but manageable. the decor felt a little dated, though it didn't really bother me.
