noisy environmentineffective heater

the room temperature proved difficult to regulate. i found i could open the window, yet that introduced considerable noise. the ensuite lacked a functional extractor fan and air conditioning was absent. the heater, when activated, failed to warm the room effectively, leaving me with a choice between noise and cold or enduring a humid atmosphere.

good locationfriendly staffcomfortable bedwindow issuenoise from barsound isolation

The location was good. It was a ten minute walk from the train station. Staff was friendly, also. The beds where comfortable and everything was clean.

The window didnt shut completely. This allowed noise from the bar to enter the room at night. I could hear sounds from all over the floor.
