small room locked door
The location was alright since many cafes and restaurants were near. It was also close to temples.
My room was small. The hotel felt more like a house. Nobody was at the counter all the time, so the main door was locked at night. I rang the bell, and a lady came quickly to open the door, but I felt I bother her when I came late.
