clean room convenient location communal fridge small toilet cooking smells pub noise

The location was very convenient. It was central to all attractions. The room was clean. I also appreciated the microwave and communal fridge availability.

I found the toilet very small. It was in a sort of closet. There were pubs around the corner (this could be an issue on weekends). I also noticed some cooking smells in the room.
