Run-down hotel without staff
Getting to the hotel itself was a challenge. A day before my stay I received an email about the hotel "implementing ecological steps", which was a long paragraph of corpospeak for "we won't be cleaning your room every day anymore". There was a second paragraph there that said "by the way, our reception is closed, if you actually want to get in, go to this other differently named hotel sort of kind of next door".
Given the amount of spam people get, they might never read your second paragraph. And indeed I haven't, until it became obvious that the usual way to get into a hotel (which worked well so far for me) won't work this time.
If that were up to me, the email would have been titled "IMPORTANT: HOW TO GET TO THE HOTEL" and the ecological excuses for cost-cutting would be the "by the way" in the second paragraph. But I don't run a hotel, so what do I know?
Anyway, I stayed in a suite on the top floor. Supposedly one of the best rooms on the property. The furniture looked more-less 20 years old, including a swivel stand built into the desk for a CRT TV. One of the shelves had a missing support so it was just waiting for you to put stuff on it to fall out of the dresser. There was no fridge, the kettle was in bad need of descaling, the bathroom door was damaged from flooding, and the noise isolation in the windows was poor.
After your stay, you need to -- again -- go to the other hotel to check out.
Needless to say, I won't be returning.
