Furnishings are minimalist: no wardrobe (just a rail with a few hangers), no TV, and limited storage space. Some rooms are small (approx. 9 m2). Road-facing rooms and rooms near the lift can be noisy; higher-floor, end-of-corridor rooms are quieter. The bathroom layout in some rooms has the toilet and bidet within the shower area, causing the floor to get wet. Multiple confirmed reports of bed bugs.
