Mixed Experience at this Hotel

parking feedated room
I found a few things disappointing. The parking fee felt unnecessary (especially since I drove quite a distance). The room looked somewhat dated, and the carpet had a noticeable odor. I also found the distance to the city center a bit inconvenient without reliable public transport. (I would not stay here again).
