São Francisco

The single room here was cheap, so I brought earplugs as a precaution. However, the noise in room 103 penetrated even the earplugs. The chamber of horror 103 is located directly above the kitchen of the café. The wall vibrates, and more beating noise invades through the window. The odour was suffocating, and it lingered all day. The only quiet time is between 15:00 and 16:00 when the check-in starts, coincident or not. You must pay the hotel fees in advance; thus, you are trapped. After the café is closed, there are still noises of the exterior air conditioners lined outside the wall of room 103. The room across with an old red window frame looked deserted. However, no one had mentioned the noise in the comment, probably because the rooms on the other side of the building seemed quiet. Also, room 103 has been recently renovated because every appliance looked brand new. I might have been one of the first guests placed in the chamber of horror. I also include a photo of their old reception desk, which used to be near the horror 103, but now it is relocated to a nearby hotel Del Rei. Maybe the manager may not know about the noise, or was I given room 103 because of my non-European appearance?
