I really hate complaining, and honestly, my stay at Smart Station Hotel wasn't entirely bad... The staff were genuinely sweet, breakfast was surprisingly lovely, and the price and location were honestly a steal! I completely understand it's an older property, and with such budget-friendly rates, I really shouldn't be asking for too much.
But... I couldn't help feeling a little heartbroken. There was zero hot water for showers, not even a hairdryer, and worst of all, my little room was sharing space with silverfish and bedbugs... In my mind, those things usually mean a place should temporarily close down to fix things for guests, but maybe I'm just being overly sensitive since they’re still running happily? Still, it did kind of ruin my trip, which makes me so sad.
