"Great location. Room was large and comfortable. Not so much the bathroom. Room was obviously a handicap room as the shower was open and impossible to keep the water from covering the floor. Not sure why we had that room. The floor in the bathroom was marked, the toilet very low."

Le lit était très confortable, nous avions tous les accessoires dont nous avions besoin et le lit est très confortable. Le seul point négatif est que les murs ne sont pas insonorisés et que nous sommes tombé sur des voisins bruyants. Les instructions étaient très claires et l'hôtesse disponible et efficace.
