the hotel had a communal mini kitchen. it had hot water for making teas. there was also a large fridge available (very useful for storing drinks).

the bathroom needed maintenance. i noticed rusty pipes. water seemed to come out everywhere except where it was needed. the wifi was bad in the room and weak in the restaurant.
