Everything in room old, worn out. On bed impossible to move from one s ide to another, might be broken. Window stuffed by constructions of or from steel nothing seen and no air. Besides, i asked to have my bed in female room for two and got promise ,but I end up with young German guy in little room, who half of night went there forth and his friends. I never sow such a disgusting situation , no place to change clothes. So stay was worst ever.
