Does staying in a windowless room have any effect on altitude sickness?

There are a lot of online resources about altitude sickness prevention. Like TripAdvisor or the NHS (National Health Services from the UK government). They all give similar advices, which include, among others:

  • Avoid strenuous activities in the first 24/48 hours
  • Avoid alcohol and nicotine
  • Hydrate yourself more often than you're used to.

    I couldn't find an online resource which mentions windowless room as a measure against altitude sickness. If it was effective, probably someone or some health agency would have suggested it.

    I suggest you to pick the cheaper windowless room and take other more conventional altitude sickness prevention measures.
