shared bathroom disturbing noise

the location was acceptable. it was near the main tourist area.

The shared bathroom was a significant issue. i found it inconvenient not having a private bathroom attached to the room. also. the noise levels were unacceptable. when someone used the water, it created a loud noise. I found this disturbing during the night.

The owners were very helpful. They gave us maps and suggestions about the area. The terrace offered a amazing view of the towers. The room was beautiful, and the bedsheets felt crisp and clean.
