a few concerns, but overall acceptable
accessible location clean bathroom boiling water jug separate accommodation flimsy lock missing valuables
i found the location accessible. it was near a bus stop and i could easily find my way to the city center. the bathroom was fairly clean (i appreciate that). there was a jug for boiling water plus cups and spoons.
the accommodation was not in the building advertised. it was situated perhaps 500 metres from where i collected the key and booked in. the lock on the door seemed flimsy. i did not leave valuables when away from the building.

Clean and Convenient Stay
early check-in nice person clean room
I could check in early without issue. The person who met me was very nice. The inside of my room was clean and tidy, I appreciated that. Free parking in a busy city is definitely a valuable amenity. It.
It took a little while to reach the people in charge when I arrived. I had to ring the doorbell several times before getting an answer, though they answered the phone quickly. It still took about ten minutes for someone to come and let me in.
