Acceptable Location, Disappointing Room

central locationinadequate signageconfusing layout

The location was quite central, conveniently near the train station.

The room itself left much to be desired. I booked a room, but it seemed far from the photos online (I expected better). The layout was confusing and signage was inadequate. It was hard to find the elevators. (The carpet had an odd odor.)
