minor issues during stay

light pollution absent wifi
The first room i received faced the front. there was excessive light pollution due to the outside lighting. Blackout curtains were absent. tamara swiftly relocated me to another room. wifi was unavailable upon my return that evening. this impacted television, phone connection, and personal data usage.
