glass water bottle excellent shower pressure beautiful building cozy shelter
the room was a classic one, a cozy shelter. i noticed glass bottled water, it sparkled like morning dew. the shower had excellent pressure, it reminded me of a tender rain. the hotel boasts a beautiful building, it whispered stories of old.
i had a slight wait for eggs at breakfast, a moment that felt a little long.

Basement Room Disappointment
damp smell hot water
I stayed in a basement room, and i felt so disappointed. It smelled of damp. It made me wheezy. The tap wasn't producing hot water, and the shower also lacked hot water. The receptionist couldn't fix it, so i had to use another room to shower. It was not a great experience (especially for the price).
