It's coming to something if you need check and make sure "access to natural light" is listed on 'To Let' ads.

I was looking on booking dot com and expedia for a hotel room in london. Found one in a perfect location but it was about 80% of the cost of others in the area (and in the same hotel). Checked the small print and right at the very end there was a line that said it was an ‘internal room’ with no window. When i checked the reviews, they all said the room was grim and depressing, and certainly not worth only a 20% discount on standard rates

There was a building filled with Airbnb places in Montréal that had no external windows. 7 people died in a fire because there was no escape.
