Acceptable Location, but Disappointing Room Condition
convenient locationstained carpetsinadequate chair
The location NEAR the theatre was convenient and within reasonable distance of the main shopping area.
The room suffered from stained carpets and dents in the wall , giving it an unappealing look. There was only one chair provided for a room shared by four people in bunk beds. THE decor was dated and inadequate for the number of occupants.
