"the room was a perfect size. Had everything it needed. The only down fall is it has no AC unit and only a ceiling fan. The room would have been perfect if it had an ac unit. Unfortunately it was very hot and muggy and I had to buy an extra fan it didn’t help much but it was manageable. I wouldn’t stay here again just for that fact of the ac unit. But if it had one I would have definitely came back "
