Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

decent breakfastpeeling wallpaperinconsistent temperature
The breakfast was decent.
The room felt really outdated and looked rather worn. The wallpaper was peeling in several spots, and the furniture had seen better days. I noticed chipped paint. The shower temperature was inconsistent, which wasn't ideal.
