unreliable elevator paper-thin walls
the location was acceptable, very close to the main square.
The elevator was unreliable, it didn't always work to the fourth floor. the room looked dated, much like a low-quality hotel in a run-down area. The walls seemed very thin and not well kept.

slow drain paper basket
The location was really GOOD. It overlooked the piazza with the excellent theatre as a backdropwith a great atmosphere.
The second room wasn't nearly as nice as the first one. It lacked a safe. The shower flooded each time I used it, too. The owner mentioned that even a small amount of toilet paper could slow the drain, meaning I had to put toilet paper into a basket. THIS was a bit annoying.

The location is central. I found easy access to many restaurants and shops. My room included a front balcony. I particularly enjoyed sitting there and watching people below. The bathroom also impressed me. Water pressure was strong.
