cramped room poor sound insulation

The room I stayed in felt quite cramped. It was much smaller than I expected, and moving around with luggage was difficult. the sound insulation was POOR. I could hear noises from neighboring rooms and the hallway, hard to relax at times. This lack of quiet impacted my overall rest.

The walls were very thin. I could hear everything happening in the rooms next to mine. this made it difficult to relax and sleep. also, the breakfast, while available, was quite basic. i wished there were more options to choose from.

a few issues

small room unhelpful staff

i was a bit let down by my room. it was much smaller then the photos had me believing. the bed nearly touched the desk leaving very little room to move. the bathroom also felt cramped and taking a shower was not the best experience. the staff weren't very helpful either other then when i was paying.
