Okay stay in central area

clean room clear instructions significant noise soundproofing absence

The hotel location proved very central. Many areas of interest were accessible on foot. My room was newly renovated and clean. I also appreciated the clear instructions for the windows and air conditioning.

I found the street noise significant. My room lacked soundproofing.
