the location was acceptable.
the room felt dark, and opening the window revealed nearby rooms with views straight into ours. also, the shower constantly flooded, causing a mess and inconvenience. these issues really detracted from the overall experience.

insufficient lightingsmall room
The lighting was insufficient in the room, I found it hard to read (and I like to read before sleep!). I asked for a different bulb, but it didn't help much. The bathroom lacked proper ventilation. It was quite stuffy. There were no slippers provided, and I found the room rather small for two people. It felt cramped, to be honest.
