The room itself was fine. The problem was the tub. It has a very deep grove in the middle for water drainage. It was deep enough that taking a shower was a balancing act! It would have been less uncomfortable if the bathtub had hand supports (an accessibility item), but there were none. The problem with the bathtub could be easily handled by placing a hand support on the interior wall of the shower area.

Everything was great, the condition, the facilities and the people. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of room lighting. In the evening, it was dark in the room because there were hardly any ceiling lights, only small table lamps.
