basic stay with noise issues

the room was clean and tidy.
The noise from the road outside was quite loud. It really bothered me at night! the traffic kept me awake even with the windows closed. i should've asked for a room further away from the main road.

Satisfactory Stay
clean roomquiet areabus accessshort walk
The room was clean and tidy. I found everything I needed for my short stay. I liked that it was a quiet area. It suited my need for rest after long travel days. Two buses run regularly from the city center to the villa, taking about 15 minutes. I could walk to the Minister in about 20 minutes.
The room was a bit small for a twin room, and it might be awful to have two adults stay there.
Facilities
8/10
The hotel provides tea and coffee facilities, alongside a fridge that guests can use. Basic TV programmes are available in the rooms, which allows for some entertainment. Toilet facilities are separate from the shower room. This is very convenient.
Location
9/10
The hotel is situated a short walk from the city center. This makes it accessible. Three bus routes serve the location, with buses arriving approximately every ten minutes. Contactless payment is accepted on the buses. This simplifies travel arrangements.
Service
10/10
Staff organised an early check-in for me. The process was handled well and quickly. I received clear instructions on accessing the hotel and parking. It was very helpful. The staff member who organised the check-in was very friendly. I appreciated it.
Rooms
9/10
The room was equipped with tea-making facilities, which suited my needs well. TV reception was good, and navigating the channels was easy. This allowed for relaxation. The space was clean. and I would use the accommodation again.
