the location proved convenient , near the theatre i needed to visit. the staff showed genuine kindness in guiding me to the apartment. the apartment felt lovely , a space where i could easily imagine living.
the room felt unusually warm , almost like a sauna. i attempted to improve airflow by opening the door , but it didn't alleviate the temperature. a small desktop fan was the only provision , a poor substitute for effective air conditioning.
