Acceptable Stay Above a Lively Pub
weak fan scratchy sheets
The room lacked proper maintenance. A fan was provided, but it barely cooled the room, and there were signs of mold in the shower (I really dislike that). The bed was also uncomfortable. The mattress felt hard and the sheets were scratchy and quite old.

clean bathroom positive attitude
The bathroom was really nice and clean! the shower only setup worked perfectly, and i found clean drinking water straight from the tap. I loved that a grocery store sat right across the street. all the staff i encountered seemed very professional with a positive attitude. Even when the pub had a crazy amount of people, they were helpful.
the stairs were a little narrow, but i managed just fine!
