“In my opinion, though modestly priced, a stay here might bring unwelcome surprises. Based on reports, assistance appears unavailable overnight, and noise isolation seems poor. I've read that disturbances, including smoke and loud music, could disrupt sleep due to thin walls and inadequate overnight support.”
