Reasonable Stay with Small Issues

great locationcomfy beddusty roomhigh parking costs
I found the room's location really convenient. It was close to many things. The room had a fridge, microwave, plates, and cutlery which I found great. Plus coffee and tea, good shower, comfy bed and extra pillows, easy to check in.
My room was quite small and in the basement, so it felt dusty. I noticed there was no milk for tea or coffee, a minor inconvenience for me. I also spotted dust around on shelf and bedside light. Parking costs are a bit high too.
