volvería si siguiera siendo tan accesible en el precio
Pros:

era práctica la habitación

Cons:

tenía una escuela al lado, el ropero estaba lleno de cosas como maderas, por lo que no se podía usar. Y no había donde tirar basura, por lo que la dejaban en el baño común

if the front door were secure and the rooms cleaner I would retrun for a visit.
Pros:

The location was fine, with many buses that were close to the house. The lavatories were clean, so showering was pleasant.

Cons:

Thr room was closed with no windows that open, so stuffy and old-smelling.
The worst point was that the main entrance door was unsecured; it was constantly open at night and we feared for our safety.
The floors were really dirty in the rooms.
