uncomfortable bed inconvenient outlets
The bed proved uncomfortable. i could feel the springs, so my sleep was poor. another issue, the room lacked accessible power outlets near the bed. i found only three outlets in the entire room, all inconveniently located on the opposite side. One was dedicated to the television, another to the kettle, leaving just one spare. this arrangement made charging devices rather difficult.
