The single room include a comfortable single bed. I found the high ceilings very excellent. the thoughtful furniture arrangement. I also appreciate the hotel cleanliness. It was super clean on arrival.
I noted the absence of coffee and tea making facilities in my room. A kettle would have enhanced the convenience . This small addition would be good.
