Acceptable, but with issues

ripped wallpaperhard eggs

The room I stayed in definitely showed some wear. The wallpaper had rips in several places. The bathroom light was dim. It made it hard to see (not ideal when applying makeup). The breakfast I paid for was also a letdown. Sausages tasted cheap, and the eggs were HARD.
