location good, but issues encountered

good locationsmall roomshowerhead issue

the location was really good for seeing the sights, a real plus.

I was pretty annoyed that the room was smaller than expected, i booked a triple room. it felt more like a double with an extra bed squeezed in. the bathroom also had issues. The showerhead didn't fit properly. it didn't feel like a 4-star experience for the money, the photos made it look way better.
