The hotel had a few drawbacks, like some noise from the kitchen downstairs and the staircase, making it a bit challenging to sleep. However, there was an issue with the room ventilation affecting oxygen levels, leading to a partner waking up with a headache. On the bright side, it was close to the center and offered good value for the money, with some mishaps like tea spillage by the staff.
