Adequate Location, Disappointing Bathroom
easy access public transportation unpleasant odor stale humidity
The location provided easy access to public transportation..
The bathroom had an unpleasant odor, like stale humidity. Staff attempted to resolve the problem by buying air fresheners, but this did not fix the underlying issue. The smell made it difficult to sleep properly.
