inconvenient setup cramped shower stall
the location was fairly central, offering reasonable access to nearby amenities.
The shared bathroom setup was inconvenient. the toilet and shower were in separate rooms, requiring a dash across the hall in a towel. also, the shower stall was cramped. Turning around was a challenge.
