small roompoor soundproofing

The room i got was quite small. it seemed like they were trying to save space (which i guess is understandable in an old building), but it made moving around a bit of a challenge. the bathroom was especially tight. I nearly knocked over the shampoo trying to turn around. also, the soundproofing wasn't great. I could hear street noise late into the night. (i guess i should have brought earplugs!).

The room i had felt quite small, really. it was a classic double room, but space was still at a premium. also, the breakfast buffet could have been better. the choices seemed somewhat limited. It lacked variety, disappointing considering the price.
