mixed feelings about the stay

traffic noise cold floor

the room was quite small, it impacted our comfort. there was also no cooked breakfast. the traffic noise was noticeable early each morning. this made it difficult to sleep soundly. the floor seemed cold, especially in the morning. there was also cold glass furniture in the room. i expected a warmer and quieter atmosphere.

the location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions. the cleanliness met my expectations.

The room felt quite small and cramped. i struggled with the limited space, especially when trying to unpack. the wi-fi signal was weak and unreliable. I had difficulty connecting at times. this made it hard to do any work or browse the internet.
