friendly staff electronic board well kept hotel non-functional phone basic bathroom slow service

The staff were all very friendly. I found the electronic board showing the times for the bus to the airport really helpful. The hotel was very nice and well maintained. I thought it may have more of a "budget" feel based on the price.

The room phone did not work. The bathroom was equipped with just towels. There was nothing else. I needed anything else but I don't think it would be possible to get anything on time.
