"O quarto não era confortável, muito embora seja reformado e bonito. Era uma cama sobre um sofá, o que tinha barulho.

A parte de chuveiro e vaso sanitário são de parede/porta de vidro fosco, então é desconfortável usar o vaso sanitário com alguém no quarto. O serviço de limpeza chegou quando estava no banho e pedi para voltar em meia hora, mas não...
