My stay at 101 Hotel was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore shops and restaurants. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making me feel welcome. However, I found the room to be quite small compared to other places I've stayed, and the noise from the nightlife made it challenging to get a good night's sleep. Overall, I enjoyed the artistic vibe of the hotel, but I wish there were some improvements in sound insulation.
