adequacy issues

small bathroom hairdryer issue
The room was not ideal. The bathroom was quite small. There was VERY limited space for personal items. The hairdryer only had some settings FUNCTIONING, and this made it difficult to dry my hair efficiently. I expected more from the room given the price.
