Hotel MyStays Asakusabashi

Smell of the room

Based on the business hotels I've stayed at so far, I would rate this as average. Neither good nor bad, I suppose. What caught my attention was the smell in the room, as mentioned in the title. I had booked a non-smoking room, but there was some kind of smell. It wasn't a tobacco smell, but something else. Was it the smell of an old, worn-out inn? Or perhaps a smoking room masked with deodorant? It wasn't an unbearably strong smell, so I didn't request a room change. The TV screen was distorted. The temperature control knob on the refrigerator was hard to see. I thought it would be a bit noisier since it's close to the station, but there was no noise at all. There was also no noise from the surrounding rooms.
