Acceptable Stay, Some Disappointments

road noise outdated decor
The breakfast was quite good, a decent way to start the day.
My room faced a busy road. I could hear traffic noise throughout the night. The soundproofing was ineffective (.. ) I found it hard to sleep well. The room's outdated decor did not help.

dated room elevator absence
the breakfast proved acceptable.
the room felt quite dated. the lack of an elevator presented an issue, especially with luggage and being on the third floor. i think some maintenance is overdue.

mixed feelings about this stay

dirty carpets strong smoke
The carpets to the rooms was stained. the bins outside my window attracted smoking staff. A strong smoke smell filled my room whenever i opened the window. i also had a glass of juice at breakfast. it had white things floating in it. i told management about the coast view, but they said they don't guarantee views even with the name.
