Mixed feelings about my stay

dusty skirting boards weak water pressure
The lack of attention to detail was disappointing. I noticed several issues. There was noticeable dust on the skirting boards, which I found off-putting. The shower was not good. The water pressure was weak, it was like a drizzle. I also found the parking situation frustrating. Spaces should be prioritised actually staying at the hotel.
