dusty areas lacking maintenance
the location was acceptable though i expected it to be closer to the main attractions.
The cleanliness was not great. I found some areas dusty and the bathroom floor sticky. also, the promised daily towel change did not happen, and i had to ask for fresh towels after the second day. the overall maintenance seemed lacking, because a lightbulb in the hallway flickered constantly.
