open window noise issue
the location was really central to everything i wanted to do. (a great starting point for exploring).
The noise was a big issue. A bar nearby kept the music going until late. one of the windows was actually stuck slightly open, i couldn't shut it properly. it definitely impacted my sleep.

Adequate stay in a lively area
central location kitchen equipment easy access street noise late noise early cleaning
The location was very central. It made access to various attractions easy. The kitchen had all necessary equipment. I found it convenient for preparing simple meals.
My room faced the street. Noise from nearby bars was noticeable until late at night. Street cleaning started early in the morning. This also added to the noise level.
