adequate stay with some letdowns

central locationpoor communicationhot water
the location was acceptable near the central train station.
the room lacked hot water for two nights. communication from the staff was also poor, and they continued to accept bookings despite the water issue. the staff didn't know what they could do (which wasn't reassuring).
