the location was acceptable due to its proximity to public transportation hubs.
the hot water in the shower took an excessive amount of time to become available i found this frustrating. the noise emanating from the shower unit was also impossible to ignore it disturbed the peace. additionally the bed was sub-par and needs replacement.
