varied breakfast main shopping street cool balcony small room tricky air conditioning street noise

The breakfast was super varied. i saw fresh bread, various pastries, and even local cheeses (wow!). the location was awesome, right on the main shopping street! my room also had a really cool balcony. I loved chilling out there.

my room felt a bit small. the air conditioning was tricky (i kept fiddling with it!). the street noise at night was louder than i expected.

mixed experience at city hotel

dark room problematic air conditioning

the breakfast provided a decent variety of options. (nothing extraordinary but acceptable)

The room i had was not ideal. It was quite dark and seemed to be on a lower floor. this was disappointing because i expected better lighting and perhaps a view more in line with a standard room. the lack of natural light, the air conditioning was also problematic. It seemed to be preset to a temperature that was not cool enough for comfort, and despite attempts to adjust it, the room remained warmer than preferred
