Mixed feelings about my stay

convenient locationunclean roomunfriendly staff
The location proved convenient for accessing various attractions.
Upon arrival, I noticed the room was not as clean as expected. There were long hairs on the floor upon check-in and even after the first cleaning. I requested a double bed, an option shown as available, but I received two separate single beds. Staff at reception seemed generally unfriendly, except for the initial person who checked me in.
