Adequate amenities, a few drawbacks

teacoffeemini fridgeclothing railweak flowslow temperaturemany stairs
The room offered tea and coffee making facilities. It also included a mini fridge, useful for keeping drinks cold. The room had a clothing rail, so I could hang my clothes.
The shower was slow to reach the correct temperature. It also had weak water flow. There were a lot of stairs.. this place may not be suitable for people with disabilities.
