street noiseinsufficient counter
my room faced the street, and the noise level was disruptive. sounds from nearby restaurants continued late into the night. i also noticed that the bathroom lacked sufficient counter space to place toiletries. a small shelf or additional surface would improve the functionality of the room.

I found the location excellent. It was just a short walk to major attractions. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful with any request I had. Breakfast was delicious and included a wonderful view from the terrace. I was pleased with the cleanliness of the room. I also appreciated the comfortable bed.
The room was a bit smaller than it was in photos. I found this slightly inconvenient but manageable.

The location was really convenient. It was close to many shops and sights. The room was clean. I got a new water bottle each day. The staff was friendly. That was nice.
The bathroom needed some work. There was soap scum build-up in the shower. The basin was loose, and it moved when used, that was not good. The small linen was not enough.
