the hotel's location proved convenient for accessing nearby attractions. it was acceptable.
i found the noise levels quite bothersome. the lack of soundproofing meant street noise and neighboring ventilation systems were a constant presence, disrupting my sleep and overall comfort? i expected better isolation.
