The hotel was acceptable as one of the cheaper options, but the shower was a 0/10. It leaked terribly and was not at all temperature-regulated. Very disappointing. Staff didn't really seem to care when I mentioned the leaking after multiple instances of reporting it. Otherwise, this was an ok stay.
