a satisfactory stay

bay window friendly staff stained carpet dirty curtain
i stayed for several nights and found the staff to be very friendly. they upgraded me to a larger room with a bay window. it faced the seafront. this offered a lovely view.
The cleanliness was not what i expected. the carpet in the room had stains. the curtain also had stains and did not completely cover the window. It did not close properly.
