Faraway, too close

If you are on thin beds, that's your place for sure! I was lucky to stay solo in a nine bed dormitory, but the bed was always about to fall, making a sort of strang sounds everytime I moved. Good thing is that the Hercus is "faraway too close" - faraway from night clubs and pubs noise in the night but close enough to a 2min walk from Arcos da Lapa and it's pubs.
