The location was convenient for local transport. I could easily access the city center. The hotel restaurant offered tasty meals at reasonable prices. I appreciated that.
My room lacked soundproofing. Loud music from an event downstairs disturbed me until late at night. The curtains were too thin. Bright light from outside shone into the room all night.
