some issues with comfort and privacy

internal room thin walls
the room became very warm because it is an internal room. it lacked outside ventilation. i could not control the heating. also, the room had a glass window facing an internal communal area. this provided no privacy when i wanted the curtains open. i felt i couldn't use the tv or make calls because the walls seemed thin. i woke up early because of movement above the room and breakfast preparation.
