basic stay, some issues

dated room overpriced breakfast
the location was good, providing easy access to nearby attractions.
The room felt quite dated. the bathroom had energy-saving bulbs that gave off poor light, and the curtain liners were falling apart. breakfast was overpriced for what it offered. Coffee wasn't included, and the food was mediocre. i ended up having breakfast elsewhere after the first morning.
