2. The only downside was that there was noise coming from a bar below our room, as it was a Friday night and I was trying to get rest before my interview the next day.

3. The downsides - air conditioning is remarkably loud (slept with bathroom door closed, where the sound was coming from) but never cooled the room to our desired temperature.

5. The only downside was the lighting in the bathroom, which would intermittently dim up and down all on it's own, but was easy enough to fix after I spoke with the management.
