Perfect.

Liked: Central to where I needed to be. Easy to get around and parking was close. I liked how I didn’t need to walk outside to get to the restaurant, so I avoided being wet. The bed was surprisingly comfortable so I actually enjoyed my sleep. I like the fridge and it actually kept my water very chilled.
Disliked: The bathroom is poorly designed. There seems to an area in the bathroom behind the door that has no real purpose and everything is crammed in by the toilet. If you’re a bigger person you won’t be able to fit into the space where the toilet is located due to the two toilet paper holders. You won’t be able to fit into the shower either.
