mixed feelings about this stay

convenient locationglass-walled bathroomfaulty air conditioning
the location was acceptable, with access to many attractions.
The room was small. It felt cramped. a glass-walled bathroom offered little to no privacy, very uncomfortable. also, the air conditioning didn't seem to work properly.
