missing fan poor soundproofing
The room service entered my room while I was showering. A simple knock would have prevented this. The bathroom lacked a fan. This caused persistent steam. The walls are not soundproof. I could hear neighbors clearly. I also noticed the absence of a refrigerator in the bedroom.
