My room faced an interior courtyard and felt quite dark, even during the day. the lighting wasn't great. i could also hear noise from other rooms quite easily. Thin walls, i guess. it was hard to sleep sometimes. the breakfast lacked variety. It was the same every day.

The breakfast was acceptable.
The room felt quite cramped. The walls seemed very thin. I could easily hear conversations next door. The lack of air conditioning also made the room stuffy and uncomfortable, especially during warmer hours.
