Comfortable beds, spacious room. The wet floor shower made a mess of the bathroom; the water goes everywhere. Probably need a longer shower curtain or add a 2nd to help contain the water going everywhere. The room got very cold overnight. The heater was super noisy, so didn't leave it on. Kitchen needs a dish rack. Handy location, and good spaces for parking.
