k i n d s t a f f low pressure rusted microwave
The staff was very kind and they kept us informed about the cancelled shuttle.
Our room felt rundown. The shower had very low pressure. Getting the water temperature right was very hard. It seems guests are not supposed to use too much hot water. the microwave in the communal kitchen was old and rusted inside.
