easy travelcold drinksplenty towelsfew towelsmissing washclothsno refreshments

the bus stop located directly outside made travel simple. the room included a fridge, so i kept my drinks cold. plenty of towels were provided, nice.

there was only one towel for showering. no washcloths or hand towels were provided. there wasn't any bottled water or biscuits for tea, which would have been great.
