overpowering scent parking challenge
i faced a couple of minor annoyances. first, the housekeeping seemed a little.. enthusiastic with the air freshener, leaving a rather overpowering scent in the room. it was a bit much. also, finding a parking spot nearby seemed like participating in some kind of bizarre scavenger hunt each evening.
