the room was spacious, especially for a central location. it was very clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. the room is an "l" shape with a large counter shelf space, it was so nice.

i suppose i had bad luck with one of the rooms i received. we booked two rooms, and one of them was great with no issues. however, the other room was designed for a disabled person in a wheelchair, it was quite uncomfortable. everything was built for someone in a wheelchair, the mirror height, the toilet, the shower, tables, doors, and all facilities looked to be.
