Acceptable Room, Unexpected Noise Levels

road noise parking issues

The room was clean and well-equipped, meeting my basic expectations for the stay.

My room faced a busy road. Single-glazed windows did little to block the noise of motorbikes and buses that revved past all night. This made sleep difficult. The parking situation was not ideal.
