shared balconyclosed bar
The shared balcony situation wasn't ideal. It lacked privacy because anyone could walk by my window, i always had to keep the curtains drawn. I specifically chose this place partly for the convenience it offered. it's quite annoying when amenities are unavailable, especially without prior notice. I'd have considered other options if i'd known. I ended up going out more than i planned. That cost more. hopefully they reopen it soon.
