room size excellent location fabulous service uncomfortable bed dirty sockets

The room had an excellent size. I was very satisfied with the fabulous service I received. The location proved to be quite convenient for my travel needs.

The bed in my room was not comfortable. I observed some minor issues that suggest a decline in the hotel's condition. Specifically, there were dirty plug sockets.

i observed dirty plug sockets. the shower lacked warm water at times. it looked the hotel called a random taxi instead of one they knew when i left a bag behind. a hotel of this purported standard should have maintained better care.
