adequate stay with shortcomings

central locationbroken windownon-working wifi
location was pretty central, i'll give it that.
the room i booked just wasn't right. the bed felt ancient and definitely needed replacement. the door lock was iffy and the window was broken, so road noise was a constant issue. wifi? forget about it. never worked.
