The Good: The hotel staff are kind and helpful. The breakfasts are satisfactory as well. We enjoyed bread, sliced meat, cheese, eggs, and various pastries.
The Bad: During the first night, our bathroom drains smelled of sewage. We complained, and so the next morning, the hotel manager offered to switch us to another room. But by then, the odor had dissipated, so we declined, with thanks. What a mistake!
The next night, the foul stench returned, and it remained into the morning. It was sickening. So I accepted the manager's offer, and we moved to another room.
I am thankful that they switched us so quickly, but this problem should never have happened in the first place. Bathroom drains don't just suddenly start smelling this horrible. It takes months or years to build up such nauseating odors. To allow the stench to get this bad was careless, and inconsiderate of their customers. Their negligence is all the more egregious, considering the high rates they charge for their rooms!
If they had been hiring a plumber on a regular basis to check all their drains at least twice a year, we would never have had to endure those revolting sewage odors. Preventive Maintenance is the remedy, and they should have been doing it all along, for the sake of their guests.
But they didn’t, and we suffered the consequences.
