Liked: Cleanliness
Overall solid room with nice view. Lighting was weird, no overhead lights and no lights near the bed, just somewhat bright lights on the wall facing outward. Reclining chairs were a nice touch. AC units on the outside were quite loud at times since they were next to the bed on the other side of the wall (unit 10)
