The room had all the amenities for a short stay. (I especially liked the modern aesthetic.)

The hallway doorway was directly opposite my room. Every time people walked past, my door would shudder, disturbing my sleep. The way the door shuddered made me think people were trying to enter my room, which wasn't nice as a female solo traveller. It felt very unsafe.
