Acceptable Location, but Disappointing Room

easy accesscramped roompoor bathroom design
The location was acceptable. It allowed easy access to nearby attractions.
The room felt quite cramped. The bathroom design was poor. I had to sit sideways on the toilet because there was a wall so close. Noise from outside disturbed me, and the cleaning staff started very early outside my door.

The hotel's location suited my needs perfectly. The staff was friendly. My room met my expectations. The breakfast was good.
I had an experience I would not recommend. The bathroom wasn't properly cleaned. I couldn't turn off the heating. I had to call the hotel from an external line because no one answered at reception. The room was full of green lights and blinking indicators.
