faulty door little interest
The location was very accessible to major attractions, acceptable.
My room door did not close properly. It felt unsafe. The staff was not interested in helping when I asked for an early breakfast, showing little interest. There was no soundproofing. I heard neighbors celebrating and could not sleep. Such joy.
