street noise inadequate temperature control
The breakfast service was acceptable. I found the selection adequate.
I found the noise insulation lacking. Sounds from the street were intrusive, disrupting sleep. the temperature control in the room was inadequate, resulting in a night of discomfort. It was either too hot or too cold.

The sink in my room made a gurgling sound for about 10 minutes after being used. This occurred as I was trying to get off to sleep (.. ) I did not enjoy that.
