i found a smart tv with internet in my room. the bed was quite comfy. i was the only guest for one of my two nights (i stayed for two nights), so it was like a home.
the stairs into the hotel are really steep. i discovered only one small bathroom serves four rooms. the kitchen seemed tired. it had doors hanging at an odd angle.

uncomfortable bedisolated location
The bed was really uncomfortable, i felt every spring. i think the mattress has seen better days. It sagged in the middle. the noise was another issue, you could hear every guest using their keys, and it echoed! the location was also a bit isolated, especially at night i did not feel safe walking alone.
