Ah. I had an experience with the same contraption in Bratislava earlier this year (I think it was). Not helped by the fact that it managed to detach itself from the closet it was in... and ended up not working anyway. The solution, at the end of the day, was laughably simple - a quick call to the reception, and a proper full size ironing board with a working steam iron showed up in minutes.
re. Bucharest, can't help myself but the city does nothing for me. I like a lot of the smaller regional cities in Romania, but Bucharest... it's just a failed experiment and I simply can't.
