Acceptable Location, Notable Room Issues
chemical scents damaged furniture
The location proved acceptable for accessing various points of interest.
The room reeked of strong chemical scents. Bedding seemed unwashed. There were many stains on the coverlet. Damaged furniture detracted from the overall quality. The desk showed significant water damage.

perfect location with super clean rooms
convenient location super clean room coffee pods
The location near the tube station was certainly convenient. i found my room to be spotlessly clean. Everything i needed was readily available. a nice touch was the good choice of coffee pods for the nespresso machine and the complimentary water in the fridge.
I noticed a slight smell in the room. It seemed like too much air freshener had been used.
