street noiselimited counter

The noise insulation was quite poor. I could hear a lot of street noise throughout the night. this. also, the bathroom lacked counter space. It was hard to manage my toiletries. there was also no full-length mirror in the room, a small detail that would have been very useful. i did not find my overall stay very relaxing
