okay stay but some issues

room noise no elevator

the room felt quite cramped. there wasn't much space to move around, and storing luggage became a problem. the lack of an elevator proved inconvenient, especially after a long day. also, the noise from adjacent rooms was noticeable. it was a bit difficult to fully relax with the constant sounds.
