adequate stay but some issues

street noisehard bed

The room faced a busy street and single-pane windows did little to block outside noise. i heard planes traffic and street cleaners throughout the night. the bed was also quite firm and not very long. I am average height and my feet hung off the edge. it made for restless sleep.
