adequate stay but with shortcomings

unstable showerloud neighbors
I found a couple of issues . the noise from neighboring rooms was quite audible. furthermore, the shower temperature fluctuated unpredictably. i tried adjusting it several times, but it never stabilized. The water was either too hot OR too cold. it was annoying.
