handy locationbroken hairdryerdaily room service

The location proved quite handy , close to the bus station.

Finding a working hairdryer was like a quest , mine was broken. Also , the lack of daily room service was a bit rich , especially since no one bothered to mention you have to beg for it before 8 AM. This resulted in only one cleaning over four days.
