Special thanks to Madinah for her exceptional service.

When we got down a bit earlier and asked if we could call it earlier, the other staff member didn’t know if it was ordered or no, we were waiting for 20 minutes for him to figure it out, listening not appropriate jokes along the way.

Bad location, near Termini but with mto degrago, dated structure, old bathroom, shower with hair from previous occupation, breakfast, as they write simple, practically non-existent then located on floor -1 in a damp room with water infiltration and no service, the table had to be cleared of itself.

Quiet at night1731Weak spot

However, the rest isn't great; the bedroom door and windows didn't close completely, so we could hear everything happening inside and outside.

The windows weren’t sealed properly, we could hear some highschoolers being very loud on the terrace for the first night, doors are also not soundproof and you can hear everything.

Safe didn’t work and tv was old with no smart function.

The door was missing about 15 cm at the bottom, and at night the neighborhood doesn't inspire confidence; there are a lot of drunk people and poor lighting.
