Penso que os comentários supra são elucidativos.
Pros:

A localização.

Cons:

A falta de luz no quarto, muito escuro devido certamente à cor das paredes casa de banho inclusive.
Na casa banho as zonas de sombra no espelho dificultando fazer a barba e a existência de banheira sem uma pega na parede para ajudar a entrar e sair da mesma, bem como o chão da banheira escorregadio.
Espero que entendam este comentário como colaborante para ajudar a que possam prestar um serviço cada vez melhor.
