street noiselack of ac
i was a little disappointed with my stay. the window faced the street and central station so it was very noisy. i couldn't leave the windows open at night. the weather was warm, so the room became unbearably hot. there was no ac, and a floor fan didn't do much to help. it was especially difficult to keep the windows closed at night because of the noise.

The location was very convenient to the train station. It was literally across the street (pretty handy).
The room felt quite small. There was very little space around the bed, and the bathroom was also tiny. It was not what I expected.
