adequate stay with minor issues

window issue unpleasant smell
the breakfast was fine, with a decent selection of standard items.
The window did not shut correctly, and noises from the nearby farm disrupted my sleep throughout the night. This was quite bothersome. there also seemed to be an overuse of cleaning products, so the room had an unpleasant smell. it caused me to sneeze ..
