poor isolation insufficient hooks
the breakfast was acceptable with a decent selection of pastries and fruits (i really liked the croissants).
the noise isolation was poor. i could hear conversations and footsteps from other rooms, especially in the morning. this made it difficult to relax. also, the bathroom lacked sufficient towel hooks, inconvenient for drying towels and hanging clothes. a small shelf would be very helpful as well.
