The room was gorgeously decorated and had everything I needed. Access was very easy with clear instructions. The bed was super comfy and the shower was lovely, it was powerful and hot.
The coffee machine was not dispensing properly. The coffee area was dark and difficult to see when I was trying to make a brew. There was no area to put toiletries in the bathroom.
