Acceptable Location, Room Issues

clogged shower drain stale food
The location was convenient to transport options, such as bus and train stations.
The room was not great. The shower drain was clogged (a real problem), and the shower itself was quite small. Breakfast lacked variety, and some items did not seem fresh.
