minor issues detracted from stay.

loud noise cramped area

The room lacked proper sound insulation. Noise from nearby bars was audible late into the night. this made it difficult to sleep soundly. the breakfast area felt cramped, and it was often challenging to find a seat without waiting. we also had to pay for the water bottles. this was unexpected.
