ineffective air conditioningloud exhaust fan
The room felt quite stuffy. the air conditioning seemed ineffective. I could not adjust the temperature. the lack of proper ventilation made it hard to sleep comfortably, and i found myself frequently waking up. the bathroom exhaust fan was also quite loud when it ran. i noticed an annoying rattling sound coming from the window, particularly when the wind picked up. this made for a rather restless night, and i ended up feeling quite tired the next day.
