Underwhelming stay, issues with housekeeping

quick check-inhousekeeping intrusionno apology
The reception service was okay, as they checked me in quickly.
Housekeeping entered my room twice without knocking. This occurred once around 9:00 AM and again at 10:00 AM, even with my keycard inserted. No apology was given, causing me distress, and I expected better privacy.

Underwhelming stay

acceptable locationsmall roombroken ventilation
The location was acceptable, nothing to write home about though.
The room felt way too small, especially with my luggage. The space lacked any real storage, so I practically lived out of my suitcase, was a little annoying. Plus, the street noise at night was pretty bad, the open window was a must because the ventilation barely worked. I really think they should consider fixing it.
