acceptable stay with issues

good locationmoldy corners
the location was pretty good, it was close to things i wanted to see.
The bathroom was a problem. There was mold in the corners, and the shower had no holder so i had to hold it. there were also no amenities provided other than soap. this made showering difficult and unpleasant
