Acceptable stay, but issues need addressing

easy accessfaulty keymissing microwave
The location provides easy access to local restaurants.
The provided room key initially did not work, and I needed to return to the front desk. This caused a delay. the promised microwave was missing from the room, quite inconvenient. I had hoped to heat up leftovers.
