a haven of calm

soft towels spacious bathroom

i found the bathroom particularly spacious with very soft towels. the bed offered such comfort, i slept soundly each night. i appreciated the ample space to move around, it never felt cramped at all.

the tv signal in my room sometimes flickered and pixelated, it was somewhat distracting. i wish the connection to the wi-fi was just a bit more stable.
