faulty radiator tight space
the bathroom radiator did not function . staff offered another room, but a move was not desirable. the space between the bed and the wall was tight. i had to maneuver awkwardly to access the bathroom. a smaller headboard would improve accessibility.

thin walls disruptive noise
the room temperature was difficult to regulate. the provided fan did little to alleviate the stuffiness. the noise from adjacent rooms was also noticeable. thin walls are not ideal, i could clearly hear conversations and other disturbances throughout the night. the lack of soundproofing impacted my sleep quality. i found this quite disruptive.

the room had tea, coffee, and milk. it was adequate.
the room required improvements. doors had marks and walls needed painting. i also found the pillows to be very uncomfortable.
