English term or phrase: the wings
went to bathroom, shower curtains were nasty, bathroom floors were old like stained and cracked tiles, was thinking of changing rooms but we were too tired and just needed a place to take a power nap. i'll give them credit for the comfy bed but that's it. checked out 2 am and we're never going back except maybe for the wings.

kycklingvingarna
Explanation:

Alltså det kan väl inte vara något annat? Det enda alternativet jag kan komma på är "flygel(byggnad)", som också heter "wings" ("vingar" också på svenska), men det passar nog inte in... Sedan är ju frågan om vingarna faktiskt var KYCKLINGvingar, men förmodligen. Och någon fågel måste man väl ha med där, bara "vingar" blir lite otydligt på svenska. Eller kanske inte? Vad säger någon annan?

neutral  Leif Henriksen: "Wings" og "vingar" er analogt uspesifikt og altså like 'otydligt'. "Kyckling"-delen er rent guesswork her.
