Conveniently located has it’s pros and cons

Hotel was clean, although somewhat rundown & it did have a refrigerator and microwave although it would’ve been nice not to have to go to the office to ask for a remote control for the television, would’ve called the office unfortunately the telephone in the room was a dummy telephone that didn’t walk. There was quite a bit of traffic noise and the daycare right next door to the hotel was quite noisy in the morning. The location was extremely convenient for our plans for the evening. Having said that I’m grateful we didn’t have to stay a second night
