adequate stay with some issues

small bathroom disruptive noise
The room size proved problematic. it was smaller than expected, and maneuvering felt cramped. the bathroom was also quite small. The sink area lacked sufficient counter space. i also found the noise levels disruptive. Doors banged frequently, and conversations outside were clearly audible.
