"One of the reasons I booked this hotel was that it stated in the description that the suite contained a washer and dryer. It doesn’t. The laundry room is downstairs and it costs US$12 to wash and dry a load. The suite itself was huge with a very comfortable bed in a separate bedroom.

Great for a couple...

The picture were certainly edited to enhance the look of the apartment, and edit out undesirable parts of it, this should be changed to to better reflect the property.
