delicious breakfast attentive service uncomfortable bed unpleasant smell

The breakfast was delicious. The service seemed attentive and I liked it a lot. I also appreciate that they gave excellent value for the price. The location work good for me, it was warm and I find it cute.

The bed isn't so comfortable. I feel like the mattress need to be looked at. I feel lumps and springs during the night. I did not get a decent night sleep. The room also has a unpleasant smell when I first enter.
