Acceptable Stay

subway proximity running paths heated towel rail pillow odor stale socks smell old pillows
The location is close to the subway. It also has running paths nearby. The room had a shower room with a toilet. A heated towel rail was available.
The pillows had an odor. They smelled like old stale cheesy socks. It made me ask for replacements. The new pillows still smelled the same.
