Acceptable stay with parking and cleanliness issues

acceptable locationpoorly tiled floor
The location was acceptable. It was near the royal palace.
Parking was a PROBLEM. upon arrival, I was told it must be booked separately. The shower area was small. The floor was poorly tiled causing water to pool and evaporate slowly.
