I didn't like how uninviting the staff was or how small the bathroom was, no place to dress in a two queen room. I had a family of 4 and it was a challenge getting ready.
Arrived and excited to see the city.
No privacy for getting ready.
No room to get dressed or ready in.
Nice view from tucked away windows.
