Comfortable and Spacious

“I was really surprised by the spaciousness of my room. The mattress was incredibly comfortable and provided a great night's sleep. I appreciate the thoughtful amenities like the slip-proof mat in the shower and the high-quality TV. Even though there was a minor issue with the adjoining door lacking soundproofing, it didn't significantly affect my stay.” view full review
