An Okay Stay

traffic noise poor soundproofing

The room got too hot, even with the fan they provide. Opening the window was not a solution because of the traffic noise. I expected more soundproofing, but apparently, television audio from other rooms is part of the experience. This is not good when you try to sleep.

the busy main road did cause some noise. i had a room upstairs with a small window, so it was a bit dark. steep stairs made it difficult to manage my bag.
