My stay at a budget Spanish hotel that looked more like a 13 year old’s bedroom – with the smallest bath in the world --[Reported by Umva mag]

A BRIT holidaymaker who booked a budget break in Valencia was left in fits of giggles, when she discovered her hotel room resembled a 13-year-old boy’s bedroom. Martha Mills paid £115 for two nights as part of a special deal for the ‘interior facing single room,’ at Casual Vintage hotel in the Spanish city.
