decent stay, some issues

broken shower headworn furniture
I was somewhat disappointed with my room. the furniture seemed quite worn, and some of the handles were broken. also, the bathroom showed some signs of limescale and mold. The shower head was broken. i reported these issues to the reception twice, but unfortunately, they did not address my concerns. they did change towels daily, but sometimes they were missing or in poor condition.
